Hello, if I'm on F1 visa, can I deduct tuition as higher education expenses? 4,000?
Thanks a lot!

No, you cannot deduct education expenses if you are an f-1 student.

Vaya is correct!
However, if you converted to H-1B prior to 1 Dec 05, you may want to wait until June to file as a resident alien under First Year Choice to claim that education deduction.
