How do I report Form 1098-T

Paying for College

<p>How do you report a Form 1098-T. My daughter receives a FAFSA grant and has $14,365 in grants and $7534 in qualified expenses. She also has a part time job. She lives at home and so I take her as an excemption. I also receive Earned Income Credit which wipes out any tax liability I have. Do I report the difference between the grant and the expenses ($6,831) on my tax forms, since I take the excemption and can take any credits for education credits, or does she have to file the 1098-T on her return?????and not get any credit because I take her as an excemption???? Hope this makes sense to someone. </p>

<p>I've been searching the IRS site for some kind of explanation and can't find out anything. Hope someone can help me.</p>
