Can I claim both of my college students 1098-T? They both live at home and qualify as dependents

Yes, you can use both of your dependent's 1098-Ts. If you have several students in your family, you can claim multiple credits based on the expenses of each student. For example, if you have three kids in college, you can claim up to $7,500 ($2,500 x 3) in American Opportunity credits.

After you enter one student's expenses, choose Add Another Student on the screen Your Education Expenses Summary.
