What Causes Alternative Minimum Tax Liability?
Incentive Stock Options
Generally you do not report anything on your regular income tax at the time you exercise an incentive stock option. But you have to report income for purposes of the AMT. Exercising a large incentive stock option is almost certain to cause you to pay alternative minimum tax.
