1099Q, does it show up on my return? Taxlover 02-14-2008

I have a 1099Q for money withdrawn from my 529 to pay my college tuition. I
realize I don't have to pay taxes on the earnings, but does it even show up
on my tax return?

If you used the money for non-qualified purposes, then you have to add
a portion of it as Other Income and also pay a 10% penalty (on some
line near total Tax on page 2). Qualified purposes are tutition,
books, room and board, etc. See the publication for more details.

As I said, I used it for tuition. Does it get entered on my tax return
anywhere?

Don't make the mistake of taking money out in late 2007 to pay for 2008
tuition, then a portion of the earnings *are* subject to tax and penalty
for 2007.
