Be sure to take advantage of the education credits

3/1/2013

 
The education credits, including the American Opportunity Credit, were extended through 2012 for expenses
paid for tuition, certain fees and course materials for higher education. The maximum credit available is $2,500 in 2012 which includes 100% of qualifying tuition and related expenses not in excess of $2,000, plus 25% of those expenses that do not exceed $4,000. Additionally, the Lifetime Learning Credit sticks around for 2012, capped at $2,000, which applies to 20% of the first $10,000 of qualifying out-of-pocket expenses   The above-the-line Tuition and fee deduction was also extended so that taxpayers who don’t itemize can continue to benefit.  So don't overlook these credits as they can mean big savings on your return and they may be gone soon.
