| Can law review course be used for lifetime credit? I know it cannot be used as a 2106 expense.

| Not unless expenses are being paid to an "eligible educational institutions" i.e. an accredited college, university, vocational school, or other postsecondary institution. The institution must be eligible to participate in student aid programs administered by the DOE. I expect under certain circumstances it could be an allowable deduction on 2106.

| never allowable on 2106. Is a preparation for a new career. Nondeductible. Ok for credit if through an accredited college.
