Can I take this credit even if I haven't had long distance service? I heard having a cell phone counts. I believe I have had a cell phone since 2003 (I currently do not have one). I'm not sure if I paid that excise tax or whatever it was call. I don't have any of my old statements.

Should I take this $30 credit? I don't want to get in trouble. But I am unemployed, and could use the $30.

. As it is, I have to pay $209 for my taxes this year without the credit.
I'm preparing taxes and if the client gives us a phone number we give them the credit without asking any questions.
