    Tuition deduction - F1
    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.
