Double dipping? Lifetime Learning Credit and Job-Related Education Expense
Currently an RN studying for NP degree. It is the same line of work and will improve my skills. I pay out of pocket for tuition at a private university and received a 1098-T. When I input my 1098-T, I am eligible for a Lifetime Learning Credit. When I input the tuition amount under Job-related educational expenses, my state refund increases with no impact on the federal. Is this considered double dipping?
