Grocery Credit Refund Only If you’re not required to file an income tax return but are filing Form 40 to receive a grocery credit refund, you don’t need to include a copy of a federal return. If you or your spouse are over age 65, see Form 24. If you’re filing this form as an amended return, check the box at the top of the form. Enter the number from the following list that best describes your reason for amending: 1. Federal Audit 2. Net Operating Loss Carryback – Include Form 56 or a schedule showing the application of the loss 3. Federal Amended – Include a complete copy of your amended federal return 4. Other – Include an explanation You must complete Form 40 as follows: • Complete the top of the form through line 6 • Write “NRF” (Not Required to File) on line 7 • Skip lines 8 through 11 • Complete line 12a if you (or your spouse) are age 65 or older • Skip lines 12b through 31 • Cross through the $10 on line 32, Permanent Building Fund, and write “NRF” • Skip lines 33 through 42 • Enter your grocery credit amount on line 43 using the grocery credit worksheet on page 11 • Complete applicable lines 44 through 57 • Skip lines 58 through 61 • Complete the bottom of Form 40 below line 61 Heading Write your name, address, and Social Security number (SSN) in the spaces provided. If you don’t have an SSN, write your Individual Tax Identification Number (ITIN). If you don’t have or aren’t required to have an SSN or ITIN, enter “NRA” (Nonresident Alien) in the SSN space. If you’ve applied for an ITIN and haven’t received it from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) before you file your Idaho return, enter “Form W-7” in the space provided for the SSN. If you enter “Form W-7,” include a copy of your federal Form W-7 with your return. Once you receive your ITIN from the IRS, you must provide it to the Tax Commission before your return can finish processing. If you receive an SSN after using an ITIN, you must use the SSN and stop using your ITIN. It’s your responsibility to notify the Tax Commission so your return can finish processing. Be sure that your return and W-2 forms show the correct SSN or ITIN. An error in your SSN or ITIN will delay your refund. EIN00046 11-06-2023  Complete the entire form and schedules using the corrected amounts. Don’t include a copy of your original return with the amended return. Lines 1 through 5 Filing Status Check the box indicating your Idaho filing status. Refer to General lnformation on page 2 for more information on filing status. Line 6 Household Line 6a. Yourself. Enter “1” unless someone else claims you as a dependent on their return. Line 6b. Spouse. Enter “1” if you’re filing a joint return. Enter “1” if your spouse died during 2023 and you’re filing a joint return. Leave the line blank if someone else claims your spouse as a dependent on their return. Line 6c. Dependents.

If you’re the noncustodial parent of a dependent and are claiming them on your return, include federal Form 8332 or a copy of the court order with your return. See irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8332.pdf for more information. Line 6d. Total. Add lines 6a through 6c. Line 7 Federal Adjusted Gross Income Enter your federal adjusted gross income from Form 1040 or 1040-SR, line 11. Line 11 Total Adjusted Income If your total adjusted income is negative, see Form 56 and instructions. Page 7 of 52 Form 40 — Instructions Tax Computation Line 12a Age 65 or Older If you’re 65 or older, check the box for “Yourself.” If you’re filing a joint return and your spouse is 65 or older, check the box for “Spouse.” If your 65th birthday was on January 1, 2024, you may consider yourself 65 on December 31, 2023. The boxes you check must match your federal return. Line 12b Blind Check the box for “Yourself” if you’re blind. If you’re filing a joint return and your spouse is blind, check the box for “Spouse.” The boxes you check must match your federal return. Line 12c Claimed Dependent Check this box if someone else, such as a parent, can claim you as a dependent. Lines 13 – 16 Standard Deduction Most people can find their standard deduction by looking at the instructions to the left of Form 40, line 16. Use the Standard Deduction Worksheet beginning on this page to calculate your standard deduction if: • You check any boxes on lines 12a through 12c, or • Someone can claim you or your spouse, if filing jointly, as a dependent You can use either your federal itemized deductions or standard deduction, whichever benefits you more. You Must Itemize If: • You’re married, filing a separate return (filing status 3), and your spouse itemizes • You had dual status as a nonresident alien for part of 2023 and during the rest of the year, you were a resident alien or a U.S. citizen You don’t have to itemize if you file a joint return with your spouse who was a U.S. citizen or resident at the end of 2023, and you and your spouse agree to be taxed on your combined worldwide income. Idaho requires that state or local income or general sales taxes shown on federal Schedule A be subtracted from your total itemized amount before you use this figure to reduce your income. Because of this addback, it may be more beneficial to itemize for federal purposes but use the standard deduction for Idaho. EIN00046 11-06-2023  2023 (continued) If the IRS considers you or your spouse a nonresident alien and you aren’t from India, your standard deduction is zero. If you’re nonresident aliens from India, use the standard deduction indicated for your filing status. If line 15 is more than line 16, use your itemized deductions on line 15. If line 16 is more than line 15, use your standard deduction on line 16. Itemized Deductions If you use federal Schedule A to itemize, use the following instructions for line 14: • If federal Schedule A, line 5d, is: ‚ $10,000 or less ($5,000 if married filing separately), enter the amount from federal Schedule A, line 5a. ‚ More than $10,000 ($5,000 if married filing separately), subtract lines 5b and 5c from line 5e, and enter the amount here. Enter zero for any result less than zero. Federal Foreign Tax Credit: If you claim the federal foreign tax credit, Idaho allows that amount as a deduction. Idaho doesn’t have a credit that matches the federal foreign tax credit. Add the amount you claimed for the federal foreign tax credit to your Idaho itemized deductions. Standard Deduction Worksheet 1.

Use Form 39R to compute the credit. You must include a copy of the other state’s income tax return and Form 39R. If the credit applies to more than one state, use a separate Form 39R for each state.

FORM 40 is an Idaho Individual Income Tax form. Like the Federal Form 1040, states each provide a core tax return form on which most high-level income and tax calculations are performed. While some taxpayers with simple returns can complete their entire tax return on this single form, in most cases various other additional schedules and forms must be completed, depending on the taxpayer's individual situation, to create a complete income tax return package.

About the Individual Income Tax

The IRS and most states collect a personal income tax, which is paid throughout the year via tax withholding or estimated income tax payments.

Most taxpayers are required to file a yearly income tax return in April to both the Internal Revenue Service and their state's revenue department, which will result in either a tax refund of excess withheld income or a tax payment if the withholding does not cover the taxpayer's entire liability. Every taxpayer's situation is different - please consult a CPA or licensed tax preparer to ensure that you are filing the correct tax forms!

Historical Past-Year Versions of Idaho FORM 40
