Can me and my wife claim the American Opportunity Credit for each of us?
My parents paid for my college, but my wife paid for hers. We both attended full time last year for 1 semester. This was also our 4th year so it has only been claimed 3 times. Could both of us get the AOTC if we are married filing jointly? Also, we did not get married till the end of the year, and both lived separately with our parents for more than 6 months out of the year (so they supported us for over half the year). But we were going to file jointly therefore our parents could not claim us as dependents.
