American opportunity tax credit

Hello,

 

My daughter is currently a freshman at the college and I won't to take advantage to American Opportunity tax credit. I haven't filed 2019 tax yet but when we do I will file married joint return and our income will be less than $160000 this year, we also claim our daughter as a dependent. Also, my daughter worked part time in 2019. Should I apply for AOTC or should I have my daughter file her own tax and file for AOTC?

Thank you,

Nick
