Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I filed Amended returns 2019, 2020 and 2021 in Dec. 2022.  That is what I think the IRS can look back on (for errors?) unless they believe fraud involved, in which case than can go back farther.   I did not wait for an audit.  Chose to be proactive.  I might have actually returned more to the IRS than it was entitled.  Total for three years was  a little over $20k plus the interest.  I wrote with the amended return that "I determined that I was not entitled to the AMT credit for the year that this amended return applies to."  I received fairly quick responses for the amended 2019 and 2020 returns with interest due notice.  No Penalties.  I received a response in March 2023 to my 2021 amended return with "no action needed at this time".  In Feb. 2024 I received an "we have been attempting to contact you about the interest due" letter.  I paid the amount requested and disputed their claim of trying to contact me.  Sent along a copy of the letter from March 2023 that said I had to take no action.  I received a letter acknowledging the recent payment in March 2024.  Hopefully I am all done with AMT.

 

I do believe TT made the error even though they won't admit it.  My non-professional advice would be to calculate what you owe when removing the AMT credit and pay that amount and request the interest amount that you owe.
