Investors & landlords

I took my filed 2021 TT (I'm using Premier not the online version) and I'm just running through some scenarios for this year, so I'm 99.99% confident it's correct, and I do make a enough income that I generally don't get a tax break, TT normally informs me of that after I enter all my income for the rental section. 

I did triple check everything and when I enter a $20k remodeling depreciation federal tax owed goes UP $26, after entering the new asset, I also went through the state review and did a final check twice and TT does not report any errors. 

Assuming its the AMT that is getting me, it seems like I'd be better off not claiming this expense.
