How do I claim my reimbursed tuition on my taxes?
I got a 1098-T from my school for 2011. I pay the amount but at the end of the semester my company reimburses me. All classes have been marked as Job Related.
Can I use use this amount in my favor or how is accounted for? Does the ,280 rule only apply when it is not Job Related?
Thanks !

Of course you can't. You've been reimbursed, you can't claim deduction for something you haven't paid.
If the employer included the reimbursement in the taxable wages portion of your w2 then you can take a deduction. This is most likely not the case.
If the reimbursement is not included in your taxable wages then just leave the 1098 off your return. You are not entitled to any tax benefit because of it.
