I am a Canadian using a TN visa having filed a 1040NREZ return for a number of years. I was not sure if I could still use the 1040NREZ because I had a contribution to a 401K and I am not sure if a can deduct education expenses being a Canadian citizen.

I have received Form 1098-T, Tuition Statement, with a $5,000 value in box 2 , amounts billed for qualified tuition of which $3,500 apply to 2008. Also $1750 in box 5 scholarships and grants. I am considered at least a half-time student in a graduate program. Do I claim these amounts on my federal return and if so do you know where.

Thanking you in advance.

I do not think that you are exempt from residency on TN visa. You will file resident tax return.
