education credit

[lakesidexing]

hi, 

I have a  situation that I'm unsure how go about it.  here is the situation: 

My son is on a F-1 student visa since late 2021, and he is 25 years old.   He is not a green card holder but has a ITIN number. 

I paid for all his college expenses( e.g. room, board and all college tuition) for 2022.   I file my return with my husband, whose is a citizen and I'm a green holder.   can I claim the education expenses on our return?  Thanks

No.

Your son on a F1 visa since 2021 is a nonresident alien and is not eligible for education credits.

Please see Question 24 of this IRS document.

thanks for the quick reply.  

I'm saying can i claim the education expense on my return?

No. You cannot claim his education credits on your tax return as he is not eligible.
