Why is it that when I submit my taxes I only receive 1004$ and my wife 996$ for the LLC when we are both students and both paying >14000$ in tuition last year

The Lifetime Learning Credit (LLC) is a non refundable tax credit.  It can only be used to reduce your tax liability to 0.  

See the Credit Limit Worksheet, for line 19 of from 8863. 

 

Although it is strange that  1004 + 996 is exactly $2000.  Review you student worksheets and forms 8863.
