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:

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