I think I made a $90k tax mistake. From 2002 to 2016 I paid AMT. I never filed form 8801 because it was really complicated and I couldn’t figure out how to answer the questions plus I was still paying AMT every year so I couldn’t apply any rollover credit anyway. Kinda forgot about it but now think that I could have recovered the AMT in 2017+ and it’s probably too late now since I never filed the 8801s for any prior year. Total AMT I paid over those years was about $90k.
