I finished my Bachelor's in March 2019. Right after that, I started my Master's and still am continuing it.
So, technically, according to https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/individuals/aotc, I am:
- Pursuing a degree or other recognized education credential.
- Not have finished the first four years of higher education at the beginning of 2019.
However, my 1098-T issued by my school marks me as a graduate student for the year 2019. (I continued my Master's at the same school I received my Bachelor's). So I'm worried that the IRS might question my eligibility.
Does anyone know for certain if I would be okay to claim the AOTC credits?
