<p>Specific numbers are as follows</p>
<p>45680 in grants
36110 for tuition and fees
9570 went to his room and board
Books paid for out of pocket</p>
<p>I read through the first two links and it looks like we don’t have anything other than books that we could claim for AOC as that is the cost incurred over the amount of the grants? He claims the 9570 minus book costs?</p>
<p>Can he find forms online and/or e-file this?<br>
Where would he note a reduction in taxable income because of books? The 9570 difference in grant and tuition found on his 1098 will not be the number he will be claiming.
What’s the appropriate form for him to use to file?</p>
