You qualify for an Indiana tax credit.
For families who already have their children in a private school, we understand the sacrifices that you make in order to pay for your child's education and regret that you may not be eligible for the Choice Voucher Program (see Voucher Eligibility Requirements).
About HEA 1003 As part of HEA 1003, a small tax deduction can now be awarded to Hoosier families for their educational expenses. You may claim up to $1,000 per dependent child on your state taxes for your educational expenses (unreimbursed expenses only). Examples of such expenses are tuition and fees at a private school, textbooks, and other school supplies. The deduction applies to taxable year 2011 and thereafter.
We hope you will find this deduction beneficial. School Choice Indiana hopes to expand school choice opportunities to more families in the future, so please continue to check back for future opportunities.
