First time home bought in 2016 but never claimed the home buyers amount. Which lines do I have to go over and revise? do i change line 181 and 369?

the house was bought in cash and was a huge fixer upper, but it was still my first and only house. I live in it since I finished renos. Please help. thanks!

 

line 181 - Capital Gains/Losses

 

line 369 - Home Buyers amount

 

I can't find or change line 31270 which is what the cra website mentions.

Unfortunately, in order to claim the home buyers' tax credit the farthest, you can go back to claim the credit is 4 years. If you purchase a new primary place of residence you can claim this credit. you are able to use this credit once every 4 years.
