On February 21, the Tax Law Society hosted our first annual Tax Return Workshop with a presentation by 2016-2017 Secretary Kerrington Hall. She covered a range of key information for students as they work on filing taxes and take advantage of every credit option:
- Filing Requirements
- Logistics (deadlines, forms)
- Amending options – learn about a credit later? Here’s how to take advantage!
- Scholarships & Fellowships
- Education Expenses
- American Opportunity Credit (formerly Hope Scholarship Credit)
- Lifetime Learning Credit
- Deducting Tuition & Fees
- Deducting Student Loan interest
- Smart choices: no double benefits
- Veterans’ Benefits
- More – including tools for International Students (see links in slides below)
