I am 37 years old and am enrolled at least half-time in an undergraduate program. I have been working on my BA for more than 10 years. I got my associates in 2012 took time off and went back to school in 2016. Turbo tax is saying that I qualify for the American Opportunity Credit but I am hesitant because it says you can only claim it during the first 4 years of school (undergraduate). I have never claimed this credit I always claimed the Lifetime Learning Credit because I am not sure what constitutes 4 years. Does anyone know how this works? I don't want to claim it and then get audited.
