The Alternative Minimum Tax, or AMT, is a tax that works differently than regular income tax, and is designed to close tax loopholes which those with a lot of deductions might take advantage of. We’ll cover the concepts behind the math first, and then we’ll explore Form 6251, which is used to calculate the alternative minimum tax.

When we get to minor children, we’ll talk about how a dependent is defined, and the rules for who can be considered a qualifying child. We’ll cover special situations, such as split custody, foster care, adoptions, and even kidnapping.

Finally, we’ll cover what estimated tax is, who should pay it, and how it works. We’ll briefly look at Form 1040-ES, which is used to calculate a taxpayer’s estimated taxes.

Last, we’ll also take a look at FICA, or the Federal Insurance Contributions Act, which is a federal tax that employers and employees must pay towards Social Security and Medicare Programs.
