We have a NOL carryforward that reduces income but is added back in the AMT calculation resulting in an effective tax rate of greater than 70%---does this make sense?

Carried forward an NOL that has reduced 2021 AGI but adds back in the AMT calculation resulting in the NOL "credit" being fully taxed for an effective 70% tax rate on AGI?  Is there a glitch in the program or is this a possible scenario?

If they're in AMT that is correct.


Thanks!

It's possible.

Also possible - you don't have the amount of the AMT NOL entered.

We fully utilized the AMT NOL in previous years

Then the return sounds like it is accurate.
