Restricts such credit to taxpayers who are: (1) unmarried individuals or married couples filing a joint return whose income does not exceed $40,000; or (2) married individuals filing separate returns whose income does not exceed $20,000. Sets forth maximum dollar amounts allowable as a credit.

Requires that any amount received by the taxpayer as a tuition tax credit be disregarded for purposes of determining the eligibility of the taxpayer for Federal, State, or local educational assistance. Specifies that the granting of a tax credit to a student due to his enrollment in any educational institution shall not be considered Federal assistance to such institution.
