The Taxpayer Relief Act was passed by the United States Congress in the Fall of 1997. There are two tax credits that may be available to you if you pay higher education costs:
These tax credits reduce the amount of income tax you may have to pay. Unlike a deduction, which reduces the amount of income subject to tax, a credit directly reduces the tax itself. However, you cannot get a refund for any part of the credit that is more than your tax.
