School Tax Credits

School Tax Credits

Question: Am I picking up all available deductions and credits?

I am preparing a return (federal and New York State) for a family member with the following numbers:

1) Wages $5,376
2) Unemployment $21,250

I am getting the making-work-pay credit on the federal return and the NYS school tax credit on the state return. Are there any other credits or deductions that are available?

Answer: Have you looked at the child tax credit and the earned income tax credit (federal form). Not sure about NY state taxes but if they are renting is there some sort of credit for that. We have it here in CA.

Irs Hope Tax Credit 2009

Irs Hope Tax Credit 2009

Question: do i get any kind of tax return back for being a full time student while collecting unemployment benefits?

i am currently tending college full time basis all year long in 2009 i have a 1098-T from the college. The amount billed for qualified tuition and expenses is $9,599.20. also the scholarships or grants portion on this form states $6,515.00. I am also on unemployment and have a 1099-G from them that is for $9,073.00. i didn’t have any federal withholding taken out for that . i have one dependent for which i do claim every year on my taxes. i am also filing head of household. any other details let me know i can add more info to help you let me know if i am able to receive any return back like hope tax credit or the learning tax credits & higher education tuition and fees deductions. please any information is greatly appreciated i do my taxes online on irs free file website my self i just want to know if i am doing this right when i get my return amount back thanks again!

Answer: You may be getting some back. It depends on whether or not you ever claimed the Hope Credit, if you haven’t claimed it. You may be able to get back up to 40% of your college expenses. I have to assume from your information that you probably had loans to cover the additional $3000 in tuition and expenses. You would be receiving 40% back up to $1000. It is called the American Opportunity Credit. As far as Earned Income Credit I don’t believe you are qualified for it because its not considered earned income, however because you file HOH and have a dependent you should not owe any tax and therefore should receive the whole $1000 back for qualified education expenses. You can go to any IRS free file site, the easiest that I have found and walks you through everything is www.hrblock.com.

Education Tax Credits Deductions

Education Tax Credits Deductions

Question: I forgot to claim the education credit on my 2006 tax return, can I ammen my 2006 taxes?

this deduction may or may not result in a refund but is it worth the cost to have someone look at it?

Answer: You can amend your return up to 3 years after the original filing, so you have plenty of time. As an earlier post pointed out, however, education credits do not reduce your total tax liability below zero — so be sure the amended filing will save you more in taxes than it costs to prepare the filing (especially if you have to pay someone else to do the work).
