I have a carry forward tuition amount of $24,000 for 2018. When I put it into my return, it's trying to claim $19,000 for this year. Am I able to change that to $5,000?

As per CRA rules, any tuition that is carried forward will be used to reduce your taxes payable to Zero in the current year. There is no way to change the amount. https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/individuals/topics/about-your-tax-return/tax-re...
