Question: What is the student credit TAX $2500?

Hi
I am a student my collage tuition was about 2100 and financial Aid paid about 2000, how do I know if I’m qualified for the 2500 Credit Tax?
thanks

Answer: You don’t include tuition costs paid by grants/scholarships; however, you can include student loans and out-of-pocket tuition paid. The credit offsets your tax liability. If you don’t have any tax liability, the 40% of the credit is refundable.

If you only paid $100 in tuition and had no student loans, then you could receive $40 back (assuming you have no tax liability).
If you had $10,000 in student loans and paid $100, then you would use the maximum $2,500 for the credit. This would give you a refund of $1,000 (assuming you have no tax liability).
