I am trying to qualify for the Lifetime Learning Credit. Filing standard deduction. I used student loans to pay for school and the benefits to pay for living expenses.
If I understand correctly $0 from my benefits went to tuition.
It would be best for you t enter a zero there. If you say your VA benefits went too pay tuition, then the tuition will not be able to be used to get a credit. As long as your student loans provided enough to pay your tuition, then that tuition could be used towards a credit. It's perfectly okay to do this as long as your VA benefits were not restricted to the payment of tuition.
