Bill Summary

Individual AMT Repeal Act of 2011 - Amends the Internal Revenue Code to repeal the alternative minimum tax (AMT) on individuals after 2010.

AI Summary

This bill, known as the Individual AMT Repeal Act of 2011, aims to eliminate the alternative minimum tax (AMT) for individuals. The AMT is a separate tax calculation designed to ensure that taxpayers with significant deductions and credits still pay a minimum amount of tax. By repealing this provision, the bill intends to simplify tax obligations for individuals and prevent them from having to pay a higher tax under the AMT rules. Specifically, it amends the Internal Revenue Code to state that for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2010, no AMT will be imposed on individuals, and their tentative minimum tax, which is a component of the AMT calculation, will be zero. This change is effective for tax years starting after December 31, 2010.
