How far back in tax returns do I need to look to see if the American Opportunity or Hope Credit was ever received?

You ---- or someone who could have claimed you as a dependent--can get the AOC up to four times during your undergraduate college education years.  If someone else claimed you, then some of the four "times" could have been used then.  So you have check that as well as your own past returns on which you might have used it.
