"Can I still use the distribution, earnings and basis on the child's return?"

You do realize that you would be picking up income trying to "use" the 1099Q?  If the funds were all used for college related expenses, you can just ignore the 1099Q.

Evidently I am losing my mind because I am posting answers to 1099Q questions that don't exist.  I know nobody would go back and delete a question after they asked for help 🤔

I saw the 1099-Q question, too so your sanity is intact for now.

@IRonMaN 

I see no question... therefore one was never asked........ 

A question, however, can be imagined from your reply... 

IF the OP had actually asked the imaginary question that you correctly answered, they would express gratitude by marking your thoughtful reply as solved. 

"..... nobody would go back and delete a question after they asked"

Sorta depends on the question (and implications of) asked 😆

Did I forget to turn that sarcasm font on when I said that 😜

/S.... but I got it anyway 🙂
