I don't get an education credit because someone else claims me, but they have also never claimed an education credit in my stead. My 1089-t education expenses do count toward cancelling my Coverdell ESA but they aren't cancelling my EE bond interest even though I used those bonds to pay the remaining school expenses (which are more than the bonds). I used the EE bonds to pay for education, and showed I have excess education expenses, so why is the system still counting them as regular income?
