I dumped them about 2 years ago when they would not stand behind their printer cartridges. I bought 6 to get me through the tax season in December. In March, I pulled two in a row out of the box that did not work. Databazzar refused to replace or refund. I told them to stick it where the sun don't shine. Tom Lodi, CA

The rule of thumb is that the Tuition Credits always follow the dependency no matter who actuallly pays the tuition. And the age is UNDER 24 to qualify as a dependent for the parents without having to consider the $3700 cutoff. ( I would sure like to see someone live on under $3700 in today's economy).

Shampoo Vs. Dishwashing Soap Warning! I discovered this important info below. Please share with all your friends. ... I don't know WHY I didn't figure this out sooner!!!!! It's the shampoo I use in the shower! When I wash my hair, the shampoo runs down my whole body, and (duh!) Printed very clearly on the shampoo label is this warning, "FOR EXTRA VOLUME AND BODY." NO WONDER I have been gaining weight!!! Well! I have gotten rid of that shampoo and I am going to start using Dawn dish soap instead. Its label reads, "DISSOLVES FAT THAT IS OTHERWISE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE." Problem solved! If I don't answer the phone . . . I'll be in the shower!

I had this problem last year. I believe the issue is that if you are between 18 and 24 and your earned income is less than 1/2 of your support (which includes the education cost), then you are not eligible for any 'refundable' credit. I think Old Jack was right initially. I assumed the reason for this rule was exactly as he stated in his first post. (I know . . . bad idea to assume.)
