@glenhodson You cannot recover living expenses you pay for your son. If you can claim him as a qualifying relative dependent you get a $500 credit for other dependents and you could claim the education credit.
But does he meet the criteria to be your qualifying relative? If he had over $4300 of income (not counting Social Security) he cannot be a qualifying relative. (And he is too old to be a qualifying child)
