How to reduce my tax w unused donations and unused education.

[zo mohammady]

Both the tuition credit and the charitable tax credit are non-refundable credits. This means that they can be used to reduce any taxes that you owe. But if you don’t have any taxes owing, they will not add to your refund. Any tuition or charitable donations that you do not use this year can be carried forward.
