To qualify for the Lifetime Learning credit, you must have made tuition and fee payments to a post-secondary school during the year.

  • You can claim the credit for any post-secondary classes you take; you don't have to be working towards a degree. 
  • If you earn too much income during the year, you may not be eligible to claim the credit.

You can remove the Lifetime Learning Credit by deleting Form 8863 - Education Credits.  To do this, please follow these steps:

 

  1. Click Tax Tools on the left side panel
  2. Click Tools
  3. Click on Delete a form.
  4. Click Delete next to the form 8863 you want to delete and follow the onscreen instructions. 
  5. Click the Continue with My Return box (in the lower right of your screen).
