Turbotax has generated prior year AMT credits that I do not have. It caused a tax audit for my 2019 return. Audit Defense told me that the IRS was correct and I owed the tax as well as penalty and interest. I have not heard from the IRS but Turbotax also generated credits that reduced my taxes for 2020. I expect an audit for that year also.
How do I turn off these incorrect credits for my 2021 taxes?
I just want to delete the incorrect information from 2020 the carryover credits. How do I do that?

Duplicate post.
Sorry about the duplicate post.
I figured it out myself. I went to the 8801 and expanded the last year credit line (2021) and deleted the previous amount. Everything was recalculated and took care of the issue. I tried to put zero directly into the 8801 form and it did not work. I did not know that you could expand the information history which is apparently what I did. I was working directly in the forms rather than the easy step.
I am not happy about Turbotax generating fake credits which I had no idea they were wrong. Somehow I will have to deal with the 2020 return.
I will have to have a discussion with Turbotax about compensation relative to their program generating false refunds that cause me to deal with the IRS.
I was happy that I had the Audit Defense even though there was nothing they could do.
Still have questions?
