    Has anyone had problems with Tax Advisor not factoring in capital gains rate in estimating tax, thus subjecting return into AMT? My projection has a $21,000 AMT. I called Proconnect, and was told there is no way to backtrack and see how Tax Advisor came up with the AMT.

    That's a pretty lame answer. But it is Intuit Support.

    I don't use the product, but is it possible you need to input capital gain amounts for AMT, too?


    The more I know the more I don’t know.

    In Tax Advisor, it carries forward actual 2024 data. All you can do is input changes in income and expense estimated for 2025, which I did. I inputted $350,000 of Capital Gains, but cannot see how Tax Advisor calculated the tax and determined that AMT kicked in. You cannot view their 6251 to see their support !

    I am having this same issue right now. No way seemingly to adjust or view the AMT calculation in Tax Advisor.....

    I use Lacerte for tax prep. I've tried re-creating it by building a copied client file in Lacerte and adjusting. The 2025 estimated tax worksheet does not generate AMT with the same adjustments. Seems to be an incorrect calculation by Tax Advisor but there is no way to override it.
