International Student, American Opportunity Credit, No 1098T or FEIN
My son is in her first year at the University of York, UK.
They do not offer a 1098T. York is on the FAFSA list and I get the federal ID number of 00670000, but that is not the FEIN required. Because of this, I seem to be excluded from the American Opportunity Credit and probably other deductions. I have reached out to York but they are not getting back. Old hacks like 99-9999999 no longer work.
I feel like I am chasing my tail. York is on the list, so eligible. But TurboTax won't let me deduct it.
