Question

It doesn't look like I got the education credit and I was in college 2024. How do I know and how do I amend my return to get it if I hadn't?

     Form 8863 is used to figure and claim the education credits.

     Refundable American opportunity credit goes on Form 1040 line 29.

    Nonrefundable education credits goes on Schedule 3 (Form 1040), line 3.

     

    To preview your 1040 and schedule 3:

    1. From the left  menu in TurboTax Online, 
    2. Select Tax Tools 
    3. Select Tools 
    4. On the pop-up menu titled “Tools Center”, select View Tax Summary 
    5. On the left sidebar, select Preview my 1040 
    6. Scroll down to see schedule 3.
