Do tuition fees paid at international universities count towards Education credits, line 50?
I recently received a Notice CP2000 from the IRS claiming that my Education credits, line 50 were incorrect. Using Turbo Tax, I calculated my Education credits at $2000 because of the tuition the tuition money that I paid that year. However, this was tuition paid to a UK university (University of London, School of Oriental and African Studies) via a US Federal Loan. Do tuition fees at international universities count toward education credits? Or could it be a different issue? I read elsewhere in this forum that sometimes universities don't 'credit' payment until the following year (2016) even though payment was received in 2015, and so, if this were the case, I would just need to show proof of this payment to correct the error. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
