I paid for my son's tuition to direct to overseas university and send to my son for living cost overseas.
Total amount is over 10k as of end of year calendar.
Do I have to pay tax ?or report to IRS?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
No tax. Possible credit. Possible need to report. You or your son may have financial accounts overseas and need to file. Here is a comparison of the 8938 and FBAR requirements.
If you paid an eligible institution and your income is below the AOTC eligibility limits, you could claim the expenses and the education credit on your tax return.
AOTC eligibility
$80,000-$90,000
$160,000- $180,000 MFJ
