 you will be able to deduct.
No, the Lifetime Learning Credit is not refundable. As a result, you can only use the credit to reduce the amount you owe. If you don’t owe anything, you cannot get it back as a refund.
Anyone with a qualifying MAGI who paid for undergraduate education expenses during the tax year can claim this credit. You must have a MAGI below $90,000 (or $180,000 if filing jointly with a spouse) to qualify. You’ll only be able to claim this credit for up to four years per student. But if you have multiple undergraduate students at once, you can claim it for each of them.
You can claim up to $2,500 per year with this credit. However, there is a caveat for claims over $2,000. Taxpayers can claim the entirety of their first $2,000 in expenses, but only 25% of the next $2,000. So, if you only paid $3,000 total that year, you would only receive a $2,250 refund. That’s the entirety of the first $2,000 plus 25% of the next $3,000.
Additionally, eligibility for the credit begins to phase out if your MAGI is $80,000 or above (or $160,000 for couples filing jointly). If your MAGI is above $80,000, your maximum credit will begin to decline. The closer your MAGI gets to $90,000, the closer your maximum credit will get to $0.
Yes, the American opportunity credit is refundable. As a result, you can receive up to 40% of its value as a tax refund. This would occur if you didn’t owe taxes at the end of the year.
The Tuition and Fees Deduction has a long history of being discontinued, restarted, and modified. It most recently expired at the end of 2020. As of June 2021, it is suspended. However, there is a good chance that it will be reinstated in the next few years. Importantly, when it is in effect, taxpayers can apply it retroactively to past years’ taxes. So, if this is the best fit for you, you can utilize it on taxes as far back as 2017.
Anyone who paid educational expenses with a MAGI below $65,000 qualified in 2020.
What is the maximum deduction for the Tuition and Fees Deduction?
In 2020, the Tuition and Fees Deduction had a maximum deduction of $4,000. It’s important to remember this is a deduction and not a credit. So, people were exempt from income tax on up to $4,000 in income. They did not receive a $4,000 credit.
The most important form for claiming education tax credits is the 1098-T. This tax form shows all the educational expenses paid to the school. Your school will distribute these every January. If you are claiming credits for textbooks and other course materials, you’ll need receipts for those as well. If you want to deduct student loan interest payments, you’ll also utilize the 1098-E.  If they did not, you will have to request it.
Now that you have information about each tax credit, it’s time to examine your financial situation. The first step should be to check your MAGI. You’ll want to check if it qualifies you for any of the opportunities. For example, someone with a MAGI of $62,000 would qualify for the entire American Opportunity Credit. However, they would only qualify for a partial Lifetime Learning Credit; $62,000 is in the phase-out range.
Next, you’ll want to account for your educational expenses. Check whether they qualify for any of the credits. For example, undergraduate tuition payments would qualify for any of the credits. Graduate school tuition payments would qualify you for the American Opportunity Credit. Transportation expenses would not qualify for any of the credits.
Now you’ve determined which credits you qualify for and which give you the biggest tax break. The next step is to gather the forms from your school and/or loan servicer. You’ll need the information on these forms to claim your credit come tax time. Good luck! And don’t forget to investigate other tax opportunities for education expenses, such as a 529 Plan.

The historic cross-country flight was made in a Wright B Airplane piloted by Lieutenant Hap Arnold, who took off at 6:34 a.m. from College Park and landed in Frederick, Maryland, at 7:23 am. Lieutenant Hap Arnold continued his career in military aviation and eventually became General of the United States Air Force. The copilot on the flight was Captain Chandler.
Construction at the present site of Frederick Municipal Airport began March 26, 1946, under the administration of Mayor Lloyd C. Culler. The first airplane to land in the grass at the new airport was a Stinson piloted by A.B. Sutherland on April 17, 1946. The City received a number of federal and state grants to construct runways, taxiways, and other facilities to support the airport. The airport was dedicated on April 27, 1949.The sturdily-bound story of a cleric of Shar whose soul was never claimed from the City of Judgment.
In life, her service had been impeccable. Daily did she devote herself to the Lady of Loss. Daily did she free herself from tyranny of memory. All, in time, was lost to her - her relations, her preferences, even her own name. Upon the altar of her devotion placed she the ultimate offering: her emptied mind.
And when she died, when she awoke in death and found herself standing in the pale and faded City of Judgment, she waited for the Lady of Loss to retrieve her. A million souls and more passed her in olourless gusts, but no hand materialised in her hand, no voice whispered instruction in her ear; no guidance proffered itself from the bleached and barren sky. Time immaterial time, passed around her like air, coming and going. And still, the goddess did not come for her devotee.
Kelemvor pitied her, as much as the Lord of the Dead is able, but could not intervene. This cleric of the Lady of Loss, unclaimed despite her worthiness, might yet have one more lesson to learn: That not of forgetting, but being forgotten.What's the most powerful question in the world?

Crowdfunding a book is hard.
Just thought I'd let you know about a free event I'm hosting on Monday with another Unbound author, John-Paul Flintoff.
I'm giving advice as if you're in the US.  Look into your state's website for assistance.  As far as bills, I would call those you owe money to and determine if they have any forbearance programs that give you a grace period.  You're still going to owe the money but they may push it back to a later date or set up a payment program. 

As far as hiring, don't let your pride get in the way of a job.  You may have to work overnights or weird shifts but it's better than nothing.  A majority of people are struggling right now and you have to do whatever you need to get by.

You can ask people for loans but it just gets you deeper in the hole.  I think everyone is going to be very understanding this Christmas.  Write notes or letters letting people know how much they mean to you.  For me, it's often better than any bought gift.<issue_start><issue_comment>Title: Clicking "Link to most recent message" in share dialog over and over causes the matrix logo to flicker
username_0: I'd say this is extremely minor, but it is distracting. The logo flickers *after* the QR code has been generated. 

Having the logo remain static (not flickering) would give a smoother experience, although minor.
