It looks to be an education to meet the minimum requirements
of the profession, and hence not deductible as a business

qualify as "higher education expenses" is a separate
question....

I paid for my spouse's certification of USMLE (required for
to be Doctor in US), she took classes in Kaplan and paid
fees for certification board. can I claim the spending as
education expense

Thank you
