Filing 2021 Returns with form 3115 and Amending 2020 Returns at the same time

I am filing form 3115 to include unclaimed depreciation with my 2021 taxes.  However, I noticed I had missed claiming American Opportunity Credit on 2020 taxes.  So I am also sending the amended 2020 taxes at the same time.  

Would this cause any issues/conflict with the change in accounting system I am requesting with 2021 taxes?

Thanks

No.  This would not create any issue at the IRS.  The Form 3115 is a completely separate issue than the American Opportunity Credit.  You can feel confident to process both returns they way you prepared them.
