Last question of this tax season; honest.
I want to amend my 2007 1040 to carry back $280 of unused foreign tax from 2008 to 2007. I actually have $483 in foreign tax, but $280 will hit the limit. I was in AMT in 2007, and the 1116 AMT has a lower limit then the standard one.
I am planning on sending:
2007 1040X
2007 1116 amended
2007 1116 AMT amended
2007 6251 amended
2007 1040 original
2007 1116 original
2007 1116 AMT original
2007 6251 original
2008 1116 A letter documenting what I am doing.
Will that do it, or am I leaving something out. Yes, a lot of work for $280, but I doubt I will get to use it if I have to carry it forward.
