Yes, you qualify. The AOTC is to help get through school and can be claimed 4 times. You can amend tax returns to claim missed credit. Tax returns must be amended within 3 years of the deadline to qualify for a refund, plus the IRS will pay you interest.
You can use the IRS’s Interactive Tax Assistant tool to help determine if you’re eligible for educational credits or deductions, including the American Opportunity Tax Credit (AOTC) or the Lifetime Learning Credit (LLC).
