tax tip – my first kid started college in 2021

[jr_tx3]

I wonder if anyone can share some tax tip for filing 2021.  My older kid started college Fall 2021.  Here is our situation

1. tuition, room & board: $37,000 (tuition alone was 27k) paid by our ESA and 529 withdrawal
2. no grants or scholarships.  full pay to the private university
3. our 2021 AGI 300-400k
4. our kid worked with 5k w2 income and will file his own tax return (we claim him as dependent which I think is required even though we don’t get any benefits because he is already 19 years old)
5. His Roth was contributed with 5k.
