Alternative minimum tax (AMT) calculator with deductions and estimates your tax after exercising Incentive Stock Options (ISO) for 2023 and 2024.

You will only need to pay the greater of either your Federal Income Tax Owed or your AMT Tax Owed, so being as detailed as possible is important to tax planning. Try and input as many of your deductions, capital gains, and ISO grants that you know of or can predict you will have by end of year.

In addition, if you have not yet exercised your ISOs, the easiest way to reduce your taxes is to calculate how many stock options you can exercise without triggering AMT. Try the ISO Planner today!

This Incentive Stock Option Tax Planner helps inform you how many ISOs you can exercise without triggering AMT, thus reducing your taxes. It is at it's most useful when done prior to exercising any stock options for the year.

Essentially, it calculates your federal income tax owed and works backwards, incorporating all the AMT specific exemptions, deductions, and income thresholds to get a sense of how many options you can exercise from each of your grants, all of which likely have different strike prices.
