Update to Amend Tax Return for Two Years

[Nicketa]

Hello,

I would like to know if I can amend my last two tax returns next year when I file to include the money that I paid for tuition?

If yes, which option do I choose when I file - I believe there are three options. Free. Help. Agent Help.

Thank you.

Hello Nicketa,

You can amend the past two years to include payments made for tuition reflected on your 1098-T Form, Tuition Statement issued by the college of attendance to claim an education credit.  You have three years from the date you filed the original return or if you paid a tax due, it's two years, whichever is later.
