Filing 2023 and Turbotax asking me for an amount on my 2021 Form 6251 but I don't have that form

During review, Turbotax said I need to review a section no Capital Loss Carryover. Turbotax automatically selected "yes" for the question "Is this return impacted by inaccurate TY21->TY22 conversion?" and wants me to enter a couple values from my 2021 and 2022 1040s. One of those is "Value from 2021 Form 6251, line 4, alternative minimum taxable income." I do not have a Form 6251 with my 2021 taxes. As far as I know, I was not subject to Alternative Minimum Tax. My 2022 return even says "$0" for 2021 AMT. How do I get past this question? Do I just enter $0?

Yes.  Since you did not have that form zero is the correct entry.
