Report amounts that you received as a scholarship, fellowship or bursary, or a prize for achievement in a field of endeavour ordinarily carried on by you (other than a prescribed prize) that were not received in connection with your employment or in the course of business, to the extent that these amounts are more than your scholarship exemption. If you received a research grant, see Line 10400 – Other employment income.
Elementary and secondary school scholarships and bursaries are not taxable.
A post-secondary program that consists mainly of research is eligible for the scholarship exemption, only if it leads to a college or CEGEP diploma, or a bachelor, masters, or doctoral degree (or an equivalent degree). Post-doctoral fellowships are taxable.
This is a non-refundable tax credit that can only be claimed by the student, regardless of who applied for the loan and/or paid the interest on it. For more information, visit the Claiming Student Loan Interest on Your Tax Return page.
In TurboTax Online, enter your Student Loan Interest in the Student section of your return (Deductions>Students).
There is an option on the Student Profile screen to check off that you have "Student loan interest paid in 2018 or not claimed in a previous year". Checking this option will lead you to the proper section of your return to enter your interest amounts.
