Hello! On my account it is saying I still qualify for Lifetime learning credit even though I have no form 8863 listed in my documents. How do I fix this?

AamilD

You will not get a Form 8863. It is generated by TurboTax based on your inputs. Did you input any tuition or education related expenses? Based on that information and your inputs, you would have qualified for Lifetime Learning Credit which would have created the Form 8863. You don't physically get a Form 8863 in the mail or from any educational institution. It is created by TurboTax based on your inputs.

Why do you want to do that?

@AamilD @Hal_Al Just as with the others on this forum, even after deleting the 'Education Summary' and '1098-T' forms, I am still being told that I have the Lifetime Learning Credit and is asking me to pay $60 for the upgrade. Please assist!!
