Education

@Ddz14357 - Simple answer: it will effect you in a positive way.  For most people, it increases there refund by $1000  (the main education credit is 40% refundable).

 

After the refund for your initial filing is received, you should file an amended return to claim the credit.  There are numerous posts on this forum for details on how to do that.

 

If you post a follow up here, include the amounts in boxes 1 & 5 of your 1098-T.
