Description
On Dec. 10, 2023, the IRS issued Notice 2024-10 providing interim guidance regarding the application of the corporate AMT. Tax professionals must understand the impact of the recently issued IRS interim guidance, modifications to Notice 2023-64 regarding the application of corporate AMT consolidated groups, the corporate AMT foreign tax credit, and available tax planning opportunities and pitfalls to avoid in light of new interim guidance.
The corporate AMT is a tax of 15 percent on "adjusted financial statement income" rather than "adjusted taxable income." However, determining which corporations are subject to corporate AMT and excise taxes, available exceptions, and other issues cause significant issues for taxpayers. The IRS issued Notice 2023-7, Notice 2023-20 and Notice 2023-64 aimed at providing insight and guidance to taxpayers to ensure compliance with these rules.
Recently, the Notice 2024-10 was issued to provide further guidance regarding the application of the corporate AMT to shareholders of controlled foreign corporations (CFC) for covered CFC distributions. In addition, the Notice modifies Notice 2023-64 regarding the application of the corporate AMT to an affiliated group of corporations filing a consolidated return.
These tax rules bring about issues for calculating corporate AMT, available exceptions, the application of foreign tax credits, and other key issues.
Listen as our panel discusses international tax implications of the corporate AMT, the scope and application of the tax, guidance regarding covered CFC distributions, and calculating adjusted financial statement income (AFSI) and the corporate AMT foreign tax credit.
