Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Was it a felony or misdemeanor?

If it was a felony, it would still exclude you as it is a drug paraphernalia charge if it was a FELONY charge.  Any type of FELONY drug charge excludes you from taking the American Opportunity Tax Credit. 

 

If it was a misdemeanor charge, then it would not exclude you from take the AOTC.
