BACKGROUND: On December 13, 1993 the Department issued AN 93(10) concerning corrections to line references on the Alternative Minimum Tax Return. On December 21, 1993, the Department issued AN 93(10.1) which supersedes AN 93(10) and corrects information on the previous announcement and includes additional corrections of 1993 forms and instructions.
NOTE: Certain versions of the forms mentioned above were corrected by the Department prior to printing. Other versions, including Form CT-6251 in the resident income tax booklet and Schedule CT-1041FA in the Form CT-1041 instruction booklet, are incorrect. The additional instructions listed below are not included in the instruction booklets. Check the form and use the directions below, if necessary, to correctly file the return.
ERRONEOUS LINE REFERENCES:
The references on line 18 of the 1993 Form CT-6251 should be to line 6 of the 1993 Form CT-1040 and to line 8 of the 1993 Form CT-1040NR/PY.
The note below Part 2, Schedule CT-1041FA, Fiduciary Allocation, should direct the taxpayer to enter the amount from Form CT-1041, Schedule B, Part 1, column 3, line f (not column 5, line f).
