harryjpowell said:Just a heads up if your using Turbo Tax. ..
Letter from the IRS said " We changed the total credits on line 54 of your 1040. Some credits are limited to the difference between your tax before credits and the tentative minimum tax from Form 6251, AMT-individuals. Although you were not liable for this additional tax, your credits were still subject to the limitations."
Talk/chatted with Turbo Tax whos online system still calcs and say we owe no AMT. They said they might submit a defect report..
All the law I've read said the Leaf 7500 credit is not limited by AMT and offsets any AMT amount 100%.
So long story short I don't know if the IRS reason is exactly right, but calculating form 6251 by hand matched the IRS AMT amount added back in and Turbo Tax Online incorrectly calculated AMT
Thanks for sharing. How is your case going on?
I faced the same issue. TT showed us qualifying $7500 credit, but IRS disqualified us for it. I am waiting IRS letter.
