I need to correct a value I entered for the number of years that we have claimed the American Opportunity Credit. How do I navigate back to these questions?

I didn't use Turbo Tax last year, so the software can't tell me...

Use the following steps to go back to the questions about how many years you have claimed the American Opportunity Credit:

• On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner)

• This opens a box where you can type in “education” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here) and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)

• The search results will give you an option to “Jump to education”

• Click on the blue “Jump to education” link

• Click Edit beside the student name

• At the bottom of the page, click Edit beside Education Information

• Scroll through the questions in this section to find “Did you ever receive the American Opportunity or Hope Credit” to change your answers
