Help! IN 2021 when filling in info for the AOA credit, I listed 3000 additional in room and board for a qualifying student. This was important because I also took a distribution from a 529 account for this amount.
Unfortaltly, it seems that TT does NOT pass the room and board amount to the IRS in the documents or data. IT only appears on the screen where I entered it, but not in the forms sent to IRS. The IRS did not see the 3000, and reduced my eligible education expeose for the AOC . This resulted in an audit. I am using the audit defense service I paid for, but the IRS took forever to acknowledge our submission and it may go to tax court. I AM VERY wrooied.
How do I prevent this prom happening in 2022? My son is still in college
