IRS News and 
Notes


If you pay for college in 2016, you may receive some tax savings on your federal tax return, even if you're studying outside of the U.S. Both the American Opportunity Tax Credit and the Lifetime Learning Credit may reduce the amount of tax you owe, but only the AOTC is partially refundable.  

If #IRS needs to reach you, it will normally send a letter in the mail. NO random, threatening calls or e mail. http://go.usa.gov/csp4T
