Form 8827, "Credit for Prior Year Minimum Tax (Corporations)," is the IRS form corporations use to claim a credit for alternative minimum tax (AMT) paid in earlier years and to track any credit carryforward. By completing this form correctly, businesses can reduce future regular tax liabilities.
This form is required for any corporation that has incurred AMT in a prior tax year and wishes to claim the resulting credit. The credit can be applied against regular tax in the current year and any unused portion can be carried forward indefinitely.
