I am suppose to get my return in 8-15 days, but there was a problem with the 1098 education credit and I should have gotton it. will I be sent an addtional check later? I wish the CPA from my last question reads this!

youll have to file an amended return in order to get the education credit. wait until after 2/15 before you file the amended return.

You didn't claim the ed credit on your 2006 return?
Just file a 1040X with the supporting info. You might want to wait after April 15 to do that: the flood of filers trying to beat that date will overwhelm the IRS.
Sometimes, if IRS gets the 1098 info and notices a discrepancy between that and what you filed, they may cut a check in your favor, but don't count on it.

Yes, definitely file an amended return. You'll get a check for the additional amount you have coming.
