How can I get to the right section to claim AMT credit?

I’m trying to file Form 8801 to claim the AMT credit, but I can’t seem to navigate to the correct screen. I reached the final screen in TurboTax and wasn’t prompted with the question, “Did you pay AMT in the past?” Can someone please help guide me to the right section?

You can find this in Tax Tolls under "AMT, prior year credit".

 

 Select Tax Tools

  • You may have to minimize both the Federal and State options by clicking the Down Arrows on the Sidebar.
  • You will then clearly see Tax Tools
  • Click the arrow to up to see additional options
  1. Once you can work on Tax Tools
  2. On the drop-down select Tools
  3. There will be 3 or 4 green boxes
  4. Select Topics Search
  5. Type amt
  6. Scroll down to AMT, prior year credit
  7. Screen will show Have you paid AMT in the past and had timing items?
  8. Continue through the interview.
