Yeah I'm deep into Pub 970 - the example on page 53 which covers the coordination of QTP distributions with credits seems to apply exactly to my situation. And that requires 1099-Q input.
Oh yeah, that one.
The easiest way is to not do NQ QTP distributions. Allocate $4K of OOP expenses to AOTC, then distribute from QTP for the remainder. Done, no math, no muss, no fuss.
