American opportunity tax credit

[Paul90]

Thank you - I'm making progress!  I was able to enter $2,032.  However, I was expecting to see an ~$2,000 change in my refund amount.  Instead, it was more like $500.  Is this because I have claimed this credit in a previous year?

Type> letme <in the search box. That should take you to the screen where you select your tuition credit or deduction.

It sounds like TT has given you the Lifetime Learning credit (LLC) instead of the American Opportunity Credit (AOC). 

If you are eligible for the AOC, you answered something wrong in the interview.  See https://www.irs.gov/Individuals/AOTC

That did it!  Thank you so much for your help!  It is very much appreciated.
