American Opportunity Tax Credit. The American opportunity tax credit (AOTC) is a credit for qualified education expenses paid for an eligible student for the first four years of higher education.You can get a maximum annual credit of $2,500 per eligible student.
But only one Lifetime Learning Credit can be claimed per return. The American Opportunity Tax Credit, however, imposes a requirement that the student for whom the credit is claimed has no felony drug convictions. The Lifetime Learning Credit has no such requirement. We will assume for now that the taxpayer has decided to go ahead and calculate the amount he or she can claim for an American Opportunity Tax Credit. The next question to ask is whether a taxpayerâs adjusted gross income (AGI) falls beneath the phase-out limit.
