Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You can claim the tuition credit If you are claiming your kids as dependents on your return. The credit can reduce the amount of tax owed on your tax return. If the credit reduces your tax to less than zero, you may get a refund. 

 

There are two education credits available: the American opportunity tax credit (AOTC) and the lifetime learning credit (LLC).

 

For more information and to check if you qualify for the credit, please visit the IRS website Education Credits.
