The credit is available for an unlimited amount of years as long as you qualify. Lifetime Learning Credit

To claim a LLC, you must meet all three of the following:

You, your dependent or a third party pay qualified education expenses for higher education.
You, your dependent or a third party pay the education expenses for an eligible student enrolled at an eligible educational institution.
The eligible student is yourself, your spouse or a dependent you listed on your tax return.
