The SC tuition credit is only allowed for the first four consecutive years after enrollment and that enrollment must begin within 12 months of graduation from a South Carolina high school.
The credit is also only good for undergraduates, and the student must complete 15 credit hours in each semester for which the credit is claimed (12 hours for students at Converse and Wofford).
Also, the student can't have received any LIFE or Palmetto Fellows scholarship funds.
It sounds like you may not have qualified for the credit. The South Carolina Department of Revenue tends to reply rather quickly if you use their portal to upload the documents, so you will likely have a response from them about the documents you've submitted soon.
If you also claimed the credit in 2022 and believe you weren't eligible based on this criteria, it's best to amend that return now and work with the state to repay the credit before an audit. This will minimize the penalties and interest due on the repayment.
