Education

It is breaking down your AOTC into the refundable and nonrefundable portions.  If you look at form 8863, you will see line 19 shows $1,500 and line 8 shows $1,000.  On form 8863, Part II is Nonrefundable Education Credits, Part I is Refundable American Opportunity Credit.  Basically, TurboTax is doing a graph using the words on the form.  This graph is not sent to the IRS only the form 8863
