How do I update/correct the AMT capital gain or (loss) amounts?

discover — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 11:29:57 GMT

If I go to Wages & Income > Capital Loss Carryover, the online tool shows me both the regular and AMT capital gain or (loss) amounts from the prior year. If I click Edit, it let's me enter the regular capital gain or (loss) for the prior year but not the AMT amounts. It only allows me to enter the AMT income.

Thank you, but unfortunatey, that does not solve my problem.

Section "Deductions & Credits" > "Estimates and Other Taxes Paid" > "Credit for AMT Paid in Prior Year" only allows me to enter values from prior years's form 6251 and 8801.

What I would need to enter are the data from prior year's Schedule D AMT line 7 (short-term) and line 15 (long-term). That information also shows up in the Capital Loss Carryforward Worksheet in last year's return.
