The short version

  1. Your Oklahoma Parental Choice Tax Credit pays for homeschool curriculum, including educational software like a reading program.
  2. Curriculum, educational software, and materials are eligible, and you access it through a claim on Form 591-D (keep itemized receipts).
  3. Amounts and rules shift year to year, so confirm the live number with your program before you buy.

Short answer: your Oklahoma Parental Choice Tax Credit pays for homeschool curriculum, including educational software like a reading program. Curriculum, educational software, and materials are eligible, and you access it through a claim on Form 591-D (keep itemized receipts). Oklahoma's homeschool credit reimburses curriculum and instructional materials. Label your receipt as reading curriculum, not a membership. Here is the plain-English version for a struggling reader, and the smartest way to spend it.

The basics

  • How much: up to $1,000 per homeschooled student.
  • Status: Pays you back Buy it yourself, keep the itemized receipt, and claim the credit when you file. The program is active. Amounts and rules shift year to year, so confirm the live number with your program before you buy. Status as of October 15, 2026.
  • How you access it: a claim on Form 591-D (keep itemized receipts). Keep every receipt and your child's progress documentation.

What reading families can buy

  • Curriculum and textbooks, including a full structured-literacy reading curriculum.
  • Educational software and online learning, the category that stretches your dollars furthest because one annual license covers a full year of instruction.
  • Tutoring from approved providers. Certified structured-literacy tutors run $80 to $120 an hour, so see what reading tutors cost before you commit.
  • Services and therapies for a student with a documented disability such as dyslexia.

One example in the software category

A New Page is a structured-literacy program, from first sounds to confident reading, for struggling and dyslexic readers ages 3 to 18, built on the science of reading. A free reading check finds the safest place for your child to start, then explicit phonics is delivered inside illustrated stories your child unlocks by reading aloud. It is offered as a one-time $299 annual reading-curriculum license for one student, purchased with that student’s funds. Start with the free reading check before you spend anything.

A smart order of operations

  1. Step 1, free: the free reading check finds the right place to start and the skill that is breaking down.
  2. Step 2, $299: a full year of structured-literacy instruction through A New Page, for one student.
  3. Step 3, the rest: decodable books, the remainder of your curriculum, and targeted tutoring only if the data says you need it.
