Wheww...ok CSUF was paid (Pell and State Grants) $10919 in 2017, $2181 of it was for Fall 2016 (adjustment amount ? box for adjustments in Turbo Tax) don't think it does anything...
He's on the six year 4yr degree plan so the American Opportunity Credit won't work, only good for 4 yrs...The difference between the Grants and the Tuition is about $4050 and since he hasn't any other income he's under the $6350 you mentioned and won't have to file...the $4050 should go down with some additional books added in...Let me know if i'm assuming any more of this wrong...Thx Tax Guy Bill...and Hal_Al...where are you guys East Coast, West Coast or In Between...
