Tuition Tax DeductionCatholic Schools
-
Wisconsin is one of four states with a state tax deduction for private primary and secondary school students. To help private school parents capitalize on this tax deduction opportunity, the Wisconsin Council of Religious and Independent Schools (WCRIS) has published a K-12 Tax Tuition Tax Deduction Parent Packet. This packet from WCRIS contains FAQs and the current Schedule PS Form. The Schedule PS Form must be filed with parents' tax information in order for the tax deduction to be realized.
