Question

I am unsure how many years I claimed the American Opportunity or Hope Credit. I think I claimed it when I was in college 2008-2012, but where can I verify this?

I only started using Turbo Tax in 2013, when I started filing jointly with my spouse.

More likely, your parents claimed it if you were their dependent. They may still have copies of their returns or remember what they did.

 

You can not get copies from the IRS longer than 6 years ago.
