How Do You Get the Lifetime Learning Tax Credit?
To qualify for the credit, the taxpayer must report the amount of tuition and fees paid, as well as the amount of certain scholarships, grants, and untaxed income used to pay the tuition and fees. Current law specifies that schools will supply this information in the form of a "return" to individual taxpayers and to the IRS. More information about the return will be available after the Treasury Department issues regulations to implement this law.
