    Education tuition or llc

    Tp and spouse both working in private companies. They go take some religious classes to become ministers when retired(about 2 years). both received 1098-t for courses paid for but the boxes in 8 or 9 are NOT checked. I do not see how this could qualify as higher education allowable under either tuition and fees or the llc. Am I wrong?

    An eligible educational institution is a school offering higher education beyond high school. It is any college, university, vocational school, or other post secondary educational institution eligible to participate in a student aid program run by the U.S. Department of Education.

    This includes most accredited public, nonprofit and privately-owned–for-profit post secondary institutions.

    If you aren’t sure if your school is an eligible educational institution:

    • Ask your school if it is an eligible educational institution, or
    • See if your school is on the U.S. Federal Student Aid Code List.

    TIP: A small number of schools, not on this list, may be eligible educational institutions. So, you may need to ask the school.

    Note that you don't need to be "at least a half-time student" for life time learning credit.

      Just so I am on the right page. Higher education is defined as that above High School for purposes of the education deductions and credits?

        If box 8 wasn't check, then they where not at least half-time student, they can still take the life time learning credit.
