AMT and home sale?

Post by massfish »

Does anyone have a resource for how home sale capital gains excluded from taxes, $250k, interact with the alternative minimum tax?

unless your house had a different basis for AMT than regular taxes, there is no "add back" for AMT purposes. Unless it was a rental and you used non standard depreciation (not likely) Read the instructions for form 6251
