Deductions & credits

It could be that TurboTax is calculating one of the education credits instead. You can’t take both an education credit from Form 8863 and the tuition and fees deduction from this form for the same student for the same tax year.

 

Also, if your modified adjusted gross income is above $80,000 (or above $160,000 for joint filers), you can't qualify for the deduction
