What’s New
Virginia’s Conformity to the Internal Revenue Code

however, you should maintain any records needed to show
that the elected state met the requirements of SCRA.

Virginia continues to conform to the Internal Revenue Code
on a rolling basis, subject to certain exceptions. This allows
Virginia to conform to federal tax changes to the IRC as
soon as they are enacted by Congress. This also allows
Virginia to conform to the Inflation Reduction Act and the
Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023. Conformity
refers to how closely Virginia follows definitions and other
provisions of the federal tax code, including the definition of
income. The legislation passed by the General Assembly in
2023 sets guidelines for future federal law changes and their
impact on Virginia returns. If changes are made to federal
law that could impact your return and require adjustments,
Virginia Tax will post information about this on its website at
www.tax.virginia.gov.

Increase in Standard Deduction
Legislation enacted during the 2023 General Assembly
session increased the standard deduction for Taxable Year
2024 from $8,000 to $8,500 for single filers and from $16,000
to $17,000 for married filers filing jointly. The increase in the
standard deduction is scheduled to sunset after Taxable
Year 2025 and revert to the standard deduction amounts that
applied prior to Taxable Year 2019: $3,000 for single filers
and $6,000 for married couples filing jointly.
Business Interest Deduction Increase
Effective for taxable years beginning on or after January 1,
2024, the Business Interest Deduction has increased from
30% to 50%.

Virginia will continue to deconform from the following: bonus
depreciation allowed for certain assets under federal law;
the five-year carryback of certain federal net operating loss
(NOL) deductions generated in the 2008 or 2009 taxable
years; the federal income treatment of applicable high yield
discount obligations; and the federal income tax treatment
of cancellation of debt income realized in connection with
certain business debts. In addition, Virginia will continue
to deconform from the following temporary changes made
by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security
(“CARES”) Act: suspension of certain NOL limitations for
Taxable Years 2018, 2019, and 2020 and increasing the
business interest limitation for Taxable Year 2019 and 2020.

Credit Changes
The Agricultural Best Management Practices Tax Credit
sunset date has been extended from January 1, 2025, to
January 1, 2030.
The Conservation Tillage and Precision Agriculture
Equipment Tax Credit sunset date has been extended from
January 1, 2026, to January 1, 2030.
The sunset date for the Communities of Opportunity Tax
Credit has been extended from January 1, 2025 to January
1, 2026. Several changes have been made to the credit
limitations and allocations.

At the time these instructions were published, the only
required conformity adjustments were those mentioned
above. However, if legislation is enacted that results in
changes to the IRC for the 2024 taxable year, taxpayers
may need to make adjustments to their Virginia returns that
are not described in these instructions. Information about
any such adjustments will be posted on the Department’s
website at www.tax.virginia.gov.

The Firearm Safety Device Tax Credit was expanded to
include any device that, when installed on a firearm, is
designed to prevent the firearm from being operated without
first deactivating the device. Under current law, “firearm safety
device” is defined to include only firearm storage devices,
such as gun safes, gun cases, and lock boxes.
Effective for taxable years beginning on or after January 1,
2024, the amount of the Land Preservation Tax Credit that
may be claimed by each taxpayer, including amounts carried
over from prior taxable years, cannot exceed $20,000.

Changes to Residency Status for Military Personnel and
Spouses of Military Personnel
For Taxable Year 2023 and after, if you are a servicemember
serving in compliance with military orders or the spouse
of such servicemember, the federal Servicemember Civil
Relief Act (“SCRA”), as amended by the Veterans Auto and
Education Improvement Act, allows you to elect to use the
following locations for purposes of taxation:

Several changes were made to the Education Improvement
Scholarships Tax Credit program including extension of the
sunset date for certain disability-related provisions; increasing
the aggregate amount of scholarships that may be provided
by all eligible scholarship foundations.

•	 The residence or domicile of the member,

More information about changes to tax credits is provided in
the Instructions for 2024 Virginia Schedule CR and on the
Department’s website at www.tax.virginia.gov.

•	 The residence or domicile of the spouse, or
•	 The permanent duty station of the member.
Servicemembers and spouses are not required to elect the
same residence for state tax purposes. No form is required to
be filed with the Department of Taxation to make this election;

Reminders
Civil and Criminal Penalties: The civil penalty for filing a
false or fraudulent return or for failing or refusing to file any
return with intent to evade the tax, is an additional penalty
of 100% of the correct tax.

Extension for Filing Income Tax Returns: All taxpayers
are granted an automatic 6-month extension of time to file
their income tax returns. No application for extension is
required; however, any tentative tax due must be paid with
an extension voucher, Form 760IP, by the original due date
for filing the return.

Any individual who willfully fails or refuses to file a return,
at the time or times required by law, shall be guilty of a
Class 1 misdemeanor. In addition, an individual who makes
any false statements on a return, with intent to defraud the
Commonwealth, shall be guilty of a Class 6 felony.

You can file and pay your tentative tax online using the
Department’s eForms or Individual Online Services. Payments
are made electronically and you may schedule payments to be
made on a future date.

Debt Collection: Before issuing any refunds, Virginia law
requires the Department to check for any outstanding debt
with agencies of the Commonwealth of Virginia, Virginia local
governments and the Virginia court system. If any such debt
is found, regardless of the type of tax return filed, all or part of
your refund may be withheld to help satisfy the debt and the
processing of your return will be delayed.

Electronic Filing Requirements for Certain Taxpayers:
For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2018
individuals are required to file and remit payment using an
electronic medium if (i) any installment payment of estimated
tax exceeds or can reasonably be expected to exceed $1,500,
(ii) any payment made with regard to a return or extension of
time to file exceeds $1,500, or (iii) the taxpayer’s estimated
total tax liability exceeds $6,000. If any of the thresholds
above apply to you, all future individual income tax payments
must be made electronically. This includes all payments for
estimated taxes, extensions of time to file, and any other
amounts due when a return is filed.

In addition, the Department is authorized to submit eligible
state income and business tax debts to the U.S. Department
of Treasury Offset Program (TOP). Once a debt is submitted,
the U.S. Department of Treasury will withhold or reduce your
eligible federal tax refund or federal vendor payment by the
amount of your debt. The Internal Revenue Code authorizes
this process, known as “offset.”

Consumer’s Use Tax: If you purchased merchandise
by Internet, telephone, or mail, or you purchased any
merchandise outside Virginia and paid no sales tax you
may be required to pay Consumer’s Use Tax. Report the
applicable tax on Form 763, Line 33.

Offset of federal refunds is only one source of funds that the
Department of Taxation may use to satisfy an outstanding tax
bill. Your state income tax refund and payments from other
state agencies may be withheld to satisfy an outstanding
tax bill as well.

Litter Tax: Every manufacturer, wholesaler, distributor or
retailer of the following products is subject to the Litter Tax.
•	 Food for Human or Pet Consumption
•	 Groceries
•	 Cigarettes and Tobacco
•	 Soft Drinks and Carbonated Waters
•	 Distilled Spirits, Wine, Beer and Other Malt
Beverages
•	 Newspaper or Magazines
•	 Paper Products and Household Paper
•	 Glass and Metal Containers
•	 Plastic or Fiber Containers made of Synthetic
Material
•	 Cleaning Agents and Toiletries
•	 Nondrug Drugstore Sundries
•	 Motor Vehicle Parts

Because of timing differences in obtaining funds from various
sources, it is possible for us to receive funds from more than
one source to satisfy the same debt. If this happens, the
overpaid amount will be released upon receipt of the funds. You
do not need to contact the Department to request your refund.
Direct Deposit: Due to electronic banking rules, the
Department will not allow direct deposits to or through
foreign financial institutions. Attempting to use direct deposit
to transfer funds electronically to a financial institution
outside the territorial jurisdiction of the United States will
significantly delay your refund. Visit www.tax.virginia.gov
for details.

Businesses become subject to the tax on the first January
1 they are in business. The Litter Tax return, Form 200, and
payment of the tax are due on May 1 of each year, for the
preceding calendar year.
File and pay your Litter Tax Return online using the
Department’s eForms. Complete the online version of the
Litter Tax Return as you would if you were completing a
paper form. Payments are made electronically and you may
schedule payments to be made on a future date.
If you are unable to file and pay electronically you may
request a waiver. You can obtain the waiver request form at
www.tax.virginia.gov or by calling 804.367.8037.

Tax-Related Identity Theft: Tax-related identity theft
occurs when someone uses your Social Security Number
to file a tax return claiming a fraudulent refund. Often, an
identity thief will use your Social Security Number to file a
return early in the year. You may not be aware that you are
a victim until you file your return and learn one already has
been filed. We apply stringent scrutiny to all tax returns in
an attempt to detect fraudulent tax refunds. If you receive a
letter from us asking for additional information to verify that
you are the actual taxpayer filing a return, please respond
immediately. To learn more about identity theft and how to
protect yourself, see the following resources:
•	 IRS Taxpayer Guide to Identity Theft
•	 IRS Identity Protection Tips
•	 Virginia Attorney General
•	 Federal Trade Commission

Form and Assistance

If you are an owner of a partnership and receive Form
502FED-1, Virginia Partnership-Level Federal Adjustments
Report, from the partnership and need to file an amended
Virginia return in order to report the distributive share of the
partnership-level adjustment, you must enclose a copy of
Form 502FED-1 with the amended return.
Any taxpayer filing an amended federal return must also file
an amended state return and must pay any additional tax
and interest due, if applicable.
More information about processes and deadlines by which
taxpayers are required to report information and pay any
associated taxes is available at www.tax.virginia.gov.
If you file an amended return with any other state that results
in a change that would affect your Virginia income tax, you
must file an amended Virginia tax return within 1 year.
If the change reduces the tax, by law the Department may
issue a refund only if the amended return is filed within:
•	 3 years from the due date of the original return, including
valid filing extensions;
•	 1 year from the final determination of the amended federal
return or federal change, whichever is later, provided that
the allowable refund is not more than the decrease in
Virginia tax attributable to the federal change or correction;
•	 1 year from the final determination of the amended return
of any other state or change or correction in the income
tax of the taxpayer for any other state, provided that the
refund does not exceed the amount of the decrease in
Virginia tax attributable to such change or correction;
•	 2 years from the filing of an amended Virginia return
resulting in the payment of additional tax, provided that
the current amended return raises issues relating solely
to the prior amended return and that the refund does not
exceed the amount of the tax payment made as a result
of the prior amended return; or
•	 2 years from the payment of an assessment, provided the
amended return raises issues relating only to the prior
assessment and the refund does not exceed the amount
of tax paid on the prior assessment.
Form 763
If you are filing an amended return, check the amended
return box. In addition, enter the appropriate amended return
reason code (see below) in the space provided. Select the

Estimated Income Tax Filing

If you did not have enough income tax withheld, you may need
to pay estimated income tax. Generally, you are required to
make payments of estimated income tax if your estimated
Virginia tax liability exceeds your Virginia withholding and
other tax credits by more than $150.
To make estimated tax payments online, visit www.tax.
virginia.gov or file Form 760ES.
If you owe a large amount of tax, you may need to increase
the amount of tax withheld or make estimated tax payments
during the year.
You may be penalized if you underpaid your estimated
tax or did not have enough tax withheld.

Amended Return Filing

When to File
Individuals are required to report to the Department federal
adjustments and pay any additional amounts due within one
year after the final determination date of such adjustments
(“the one-year requirement”). For the purposes of the oneyear requirement, the “final determination date” is defined
as one of the following:
•	 If the federal adjustment is the result of an audit or other
action by the IRS, the final determination date is defined as
the first day on which no federal adjustments arising from
that audit or other action remain to be finally determined.
For agreements required to be signed by the IRS and the
taxpayer, the final determination date is defined as the
date on which the last party signed the agreement.
•	 If the federal adjustment is the result of an audit or other
action by the IRS, and the taxpayer filed as a member
of a Virginia combined or consolidated return, the final
determination date is defined as the first day on which no
related federal adjustments arising from that audit remain
to be finally determined for the entire group.
•	 If the federal adjustment results from filing an amended
federal return, a federal refund claim, or an administrative
adjustment request or if it is a federal adjustment reported
on an amended federal return or other similar report, the
final determination date is defined as the day on which the
amended return, refund claim, administrative adjustment
request, or other similar report was filed.

claiming more income tax withheld than what was claimed on
your original return.

Deceased Taxpayers

Surviving Spouse filing Joint Return: As the surviving
spouse, you are considered the primary taxpayer. To complete
your return:
•	 List your name, Social Security Number and Date of Birth
first on the return.
•	 Include your spouse’s name, Social Security Number and
Date of Birth in the fields labeled for spouse.
•	 Check the “Deceased” box for your spouse.
•	 Any refund issued will be made payable to the surviving
spouse. The refund may be direct deposited.
•	 No additional documentation or forms are required.
Single Filers: If you are the court-appointed or certified
Personal Representative (also referred to as Executor or
Administrator) of the decedent’s estate, include a copy of the
court certificate showing your appointment with the return.
•	 Any refund issued will be made payable to the estate of
the decedent
•	 The refund will be issued as a check. The check may be
cashed or deposited with the endorsement of the courtappointed Personal Representative.
Joint Filers, both Taxpayers Deceased: Follow the
instructions for Single Filers.
Important: If a refund is due, the refund will be issued in the
name of the surviving spouse or the estate of the decedent(s)
unless a properly completed copy of federal Form 1310 is
provided. When filing electronically, the Form 1310 must be
included with the federal filing.

Record Keeping

Keep your tax records for at least 3 years from the due date
of the return or the date the return was filed, whichever is
later. If the IRS requires you to keep your federal records
for a longer period of time, keep your state records for the
same period of time.

Federal Adjustments
If your federal income tax return was adjusted by the IRS
during the taxable year, an amended Virginia return must be
filed within 1 year after the final determination of such federal
change, correction or renegotiation. Include a copy of the
federal adjustments. See “When to File” earlier in this section
for additional information.
Net Operating Losses
Although there is no express statutory provision for a separate
Virginia net operating loss available for carryback or carryover,
the amount of federal net operating loss is the starting point in
computing the amount of deduction to be allowed on the Virginia
return. Check the amended return box located on the front of
Form 763, indicating that this is an amended return. Also, place
the reason code “01” in the adjacent box, indicating the return is

Filing Requirements
Filing Threshold

Filing requirements are based on your residency status and
the amount of your income. Dependents and students are
subject to the same filing requirements as anyone else.
•	 Nonresidents of Virginia with income at or above the filing
threshold must file if any of their income is from Virginia
sources.
•	 Residents of Virginia with income at or above the minimum
filing threshold must file.
4

For information on Virginia residency requirements, please
read the next section, “Residency Status.”
If your Virginia Adjusted Gross Income (VAGI) is at or above
the threshold amount shown in the following table, you are
required to file. VAGI is the Adjusted Gross Income on your
federal return plus any Virginia additions from Line 2, minus
any Virginia subtractions from Line 8. Information on Virginia
additions and subtractions is included in the instructions later
in this booklet.
If your income is only from wages, salaries and interest from
a savings or checking account, your VAGI is usually the same
as the federal adjusted gross income shown on your federal
return. Once you have computed your VAGI, check the chart
below to see if you need to file a Virginia income tax return.
	You do not have to file if you are:
Single and your VAGI is less than...........$11,950
Married filing a joint return (both must
have Virginia Source Income) and your
combined VAGI is less than.....................$23,900
Married, spouse has no income from
any source and your VAGI is less than...$11,950
Married filing separately (on separate
forms) and your VAGI is less than............$11,950
If you are not required to file, but you had Virginia income
tax withheld or you made estimated payments, you are
entitled to a refund of the amount withheld or paid. You
must file a return to get a refund.
We periodically review and update the Department’s records to
make sure that we have correct return information. Sometimes,
we have to contact taxpayers to confirm that they did not need
to file for a given year. As a result, even if you do not need
to file a return for 2024, you may receive an inquiry at a later
date to verify your VAGI.

Domiciliary Residents
Anyone who maintains a legal domicile (residence) in Virginia,
whether living in or out of Virginia, is a domiciliary resident. This
includes members of the U.S. armed forces who have Virginia
as their home of record. Domiciliary residents have their
permanent place of residence in Virginia. Any person who has
not abandoned their legal domicile in Virginia and established
legal domicile in another state remains a domiciliary resident
of Virginia, even if residing in another jurisdiction for a number
of years. In determining domicile, the Department considers
many factors. Some of the more common indicators of domicile
are: voter registration; motor vehicle and personal property
registration; business pursuits; expressed intent; conduct;
leaseholds and situs of real property owned.
Actual Residents
You are an actual resident if:
You maintained an abode in Virginia or were physically
present in Virginia for more than 183 total days during the
taxable year, even if you are a domiciliary resident of another
state or country.
If you are an actual resident of Virginia, you may be required
to file as a resident in Virginia and in your domiciliary state.
In this situation, you should claim a credit on the return filed
in the state of your legal domicile for taxes paid to Virginia.
Students: The rules for determining the residency status of
a student are the same as for anyone else.
Special Rules
Members of the U.S. Congress: If you are a member of the
U.S. Congress who is a domiciliary (legal) resident of another
state, you are not subject to taxation as an actual resident of
Virginia even if you maintained an abode in Virginia for more
than 183 days. However, if you have income from Virginia
sources other than your congressional pay, you may be
required to file a Form 763, Nonresident Income Tax Return.
Spouses, Dependents and Congressional Staff Members:
The exemption for members of the U.S. Congress does
not apply to spouses, dependents or congressional staff
members. If you are a spouse or dependent of a member of the
U.S. Congress or you are employed by a member of the U.S.
Congress, you must determine your own residency status
and filing obligations, even if you filed a joint federal return.
Military Personnel and Spouses of Military Personnel:
For Taxable Year 2023 and after, if you are a servicemember
serving in compliance with military orders or the spouse
of such servicemember, the federal Servicemember Civil
Relief Act (“SCRA”), as amended by the Veterans Auto and
Education Improvement Act, allows you to elect to use the
following locations for purposes of taxation:
•	 The residence or domicile of the member,
•	 The residence or domicile of the spouse, or
•	 The permanent duty station of the member.
Servicemembers and spouses are not required to elect the
same residence for state tax purposes. No form is required to
be filed with the Department of Taxation to make this election;
however, you should maintain any records needed to show
that the elected state met the requirements of SCRA.

Residency Status

Residents
Every Virginia resident whose Virginia Adjusted Gross
Income is at or above the minimum filing threshold must
file. Any “federal area” such as a military or naval reservation,
federal agency or federal administration that is inside the
geographical boundaries of Virginia is considered a location
in Virginia and non-active duty residents of those areas are
subject to Virginia income tax just like residents of any other
location in the state.
You may be required to file as a resident in two states if you
are an actual resident of one state and a domiciliary resident
of another state (see definitions below). If you are in this
situation, you may be able to take a credit on the return filed
in the state of your legal domicile. Refer to the instructions
for Schedule OSC on Page 34 of these instructions for more
information on the credit for tax paid to another state.
If you are a servicemember serving in compliance with military
orders or the spouse of such a servicemember, follow the
special rules under “Military Personnel and Spouses of
Military Personnel,’ explained later in this booklet.

Exceptions for Certain Nonresidents
If you are a nonresident of Virginia who commutes daily to
work in Virginia from Kentucky or the District of Colum­bia,
you do not have to file if:
•	 You have no actual place of abode in Virginia at any time
during the year;
•	 Salaries and wages are your only Virginia source income;
and
•	 Your salaries and wages are subject to income taxation
by Kentucky or the District of Columbia.
If you are a nonresident of Virginia who is a resident of
Maryland, Pennsylvania, or West Virginia and you earn
salaries and wages in Virginia, you are exempt from filing a
Virginia income tax return and paying Virginia income tax if:
•	 Your only income from sources in Virginia is from salaries
and wages; and
•	 Your salaries and wages are subject to income taxation
by Maryland, Pennsylvania, or West Virginia.
If you are a domiciliary resident of Kentucky, Mary­land,
Pennsylvania, West Virginia, or the District of Co­lumbia
and have income from Virginia sources other than wages and
salaries, (such as business income or gain from the sale of
a residence), you must file a Vir­ginia Nonresident Individual
Income Tax Return, Form 763, and pay tax on income not
specifically exempted above.

If you elect a state other than Virginia under SCRA, the
following two types of income are exempted from Virginia
individual income tax:
•	 A servicemembers’ active duty pay, and
•	 A spouses’ income from Virginia sources for services
performed (such as wages received as an employee).
These two types of income will be referred to as “SCRA
protected income.”
If you had Virginia income tax withheld from your SCRA
protected income, you may file Form 763-S, Virginia Special
Nonresident Claim for Individual Income Tax Withheld to
request a refund. Going forward, you may need to indicate
on Form VA-4 that such income is exempt from withholding
by checking the line on that Form that references SCRA.
If the servicemember begins or ceases to serve in compliance
with military orders during the taxable year you may be
required to file Form 760PY, Part-Year Resident Income
Tax Return (see the instructions to Form 760PY for more
information).
If you have income from Virginia sources other than SCRA
protected income, you must file Form 763, Nonresident
Income Tax Return to report and pay Virginia income tax on
such income.
Spouse’s self-employment income: A spouse’s income
from self-employment may or may not qualify as SCRA
protected income. Such income would qualify only if the
predominant source of the business’ income is from the
spouse’s performance of services. If the spouse’s business
does not employ others, and does not employ significant
capital, then the predominant source of the business’ income
is from the spouse’s performance of services. Please see
Tax Bulletin 10-1 available at www.tax.virginia.gov for more
details regarding a spouse’s self-employment income.
If you elect Virginia (or are unable to elect a state other than
Virginia) under SCRA, you are a Virginia resident and must
file Form 760, Resident Income Tax Return. Your SCRA
protected income is not exempt from Virginia income tax.

Tax Withheld in Error by Employer: If Virginia tax was
withheld from your income in error, you should file Form 763‑S
to obtain a refund.
If you meet any of the exceptions above and had Virginia
withholding, you may need to file Form 763-S, Virginia Special
Nonresident Claim For Individual Income Tax Withheld to claim
your refund.
Part-Year Residents
You may be a part-year resident if your residency in Virginia
began or ended during the taxable year. Residents who
move into or out of Virginia during the taxable year and do
not fall into either category below are generally considered
full-year residents.
•	 Virginia residents who move out of Virginia during the
taxable year and become domiciliary residents of another
state are part-year residents, provided they do not move
back to Virginia for at least 6 months.
•	 Those who move into Virginia during the taxable year and
become either domiciliary or actual residents of Virginia
are also considered part-year residents.
The distinction between full-year and part-year residents is
important in deciding which form to file and what income
is taxable in Virginia. To compute Virginia Adjusted Gross
Income (VAGI) and determine if VAGI meets the minimum filing
threshold, part-year residents who file Form 760PY are allowed
a subtraction from federal adjusted gross income equal to the
amount of income attributable to residence outside Virginia.
If you are a part-year resident and you do not file the
correct form, you will not compute the correct amount
of tax. See the next section, “WHICH FORM TO FILE.”

Nonresidents
Nonresidents of Virginia with Virginia Adjusted Gross
Income at or above the filing threshold must file if any
of their income is from Virginia sources. Income from
Virginia sources is income received from labor performed,
business done, or property located in Virginia, including gains
from sales, exchanges or other dispositions of real estate and
intangible personal property having a situs in Virginia. Virginia
source income includes income passed through from a
partnership, S corporation or limited liability company that
does business in Virginia. It also includes business income
and proceeds from real estate transactions passed through
by a Virginia trust. It generally does not include personal
savings account interest or dividends from an individual’s
stock market investments.
Those who maintain legal domicile in another state and live in
Virginia less than 183 days of the taxable year (or do not live
in Virginia at all) are nonresidents. Also, members of the U.S.
armed forces who have another state as their home of record
(legal domicile) are generally classified as nonresidents of
Virginia, even though they may be stationed in Virginia for years.

Which Form To File

Income reported on a unified return would be subtracted on
the Form 763 using Code 50 (Pass-Through Entity Income)
on Lines 6b - 6d of the Schedule 763 ADJ.
Other Frequently Used Virginia Forms

Residents File Form 760
File Form 760 if you are a part-year resident and all of your
income came from Virginia sources or was received while
you were a Virginia resident. This will allow you to claim the
full exemption and standard or itemized deduction instead of
computing partial amounts as required for part-year residents
filing Form 760PY.
Part-Year Residents File Form 760PY
As a general rule, part-year residents file Form 760PY. If 1
spouse is a full-year resident and the other is a part-year
resident, the couple may file together on Form 760PY. The
part-year resident spouse will compute a prorated exemption
amount. The full-year resident spouse will claim the full
exemption amount.
If you are a part-year resident who received Virginia source
income, as well as other income, during the portion of the
year you lived in another state, you need to file 2 Virginia
returns for the taxable year. File Form 760PY to report the
income attributable to your period of Virginia residency. File
Form 763, the nonresident return, to report the Virginia source
income received as a nonresident.
Nonresidents File Form 763
Generally, nonresidents with income from Virginia sources
must file a Virginia return if their income is at or above the
filing threshold. Nonresidents who earn salaries and wages in
Virginia and pay tax on those salaries and wages to the District
of Columbia, Kentucky, Maryland, Pennsylvania or West Virginia
are not required to file if they meet the criteria described in the
previous section under “Exceptions for Certain Nonresidents.”
Residents of states other than those in “Exceptions for Certain
Nonresidents” do not qualify for a filing exception.
Usually, when 1 spouse is a resident and the other spouse is
a nonresident, each spouse whose income is at or above the
filing threshold, must file separately. The resident spouse must
file on Form 760. The nonresident spouse must file Form 763.
There are only 3 circumstances in which such a couple can file
jointly on the same return. If both spouses have income and
all of the nonresident’s income is Virginia source income, a
joint resident return (Form 760 ) may be filed. If both spouses
elect to determine their joint Virginia taxable income as if they
were both Virginia residents, a joint resident return may be
filed. Also, if the nonresident spouse has no income at all, a
joint resident return may be filed.
Members of the Armed Forces
Special rules apply to servicemembers and their spouses.
Please see the discussion of this topic early in these
instructions, under “Military Personnel and Spouses of Military
Personnel.”

When To File

Unified Nonresident Composite Filers File Form 765
Partnerships, S corporations and limited liability companies
may file, on behalf of their nonresident partners, shareholders,
or members, a unified return (Form 765) thereby relieving
these persons of the responsibility of filing a Virginia
nonresident individual return. An owner of a pass-through entity
may also need to file a nonresident return (Form 763) to report
Virginia source income that was not included on a Form 765.

Calendar Year Filers - May 1, 2025
If your taxable year is January 1, 2024 - December 31, 2024,
your individual income tax return must be postmarked no later
than May 1, 2025, to avoid late filing penalties and interest.
When filing by mail, the envelope must be postmarked by the
due date. Put the correct postage on your envelope. If your
return is sent back to you because of insufficient postage, you
are liable for the penalties and interest if the postmark on the
remailed return is after the due date. Tax returns or payments

of taxes remitted by a commercial delivery service will be
considered timely filed if received in an envelope or sealed
container bearing a confirmation of shipment on or before
midnight of the day the return or payment is due.
If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday,
you may file your return on the next day that is not a Saturday,
Sunday, or legal holiday.
Fiscal Year Filers
If your taxable year is not January 1 through December 31,
your return must be postmarked by the 15th day of the 4th
month following the close of your fiscal year.
When filing by paper, you should write “FISCAL YEAR
FILER” across the top of page 1 of your return and enclose
a statement indicating the beginning and ending months of
your 12-month fiscal year. If you file after the due date or do
not pay the full amount due by the due date, you may have
to pay penalties and interest.
Overseas Rule
If you are living or traveling outside the United States or
Puerto Rico (including persons in the military or naval service
on duty outside the United States and Puerto Rico), you
must file your return by July 1, 2025. Be sure to check the
appropriate box to the left of the name and address section.
Members of the Military: Members of the armed forces
serving in a combat zone receive either the same individual
income tax filing and payment extensions as those granted
to them by the IRS, plus an additional 15 days, or a 1-year
extension, whichever date is later. All extensions also apply
to spouses of military personnel. Service families may wish,
however, to file their individual income tax returns before the
extended deadlines to receive refunds. Service members
claiming this extension should write “Combat Zone” across
the top of their tax returns and on the envelopes used to mail
their returns. Such combat zone personnel should similarly
write “Combat Zone” across the top of their correspondence,
and on the envelope used to mail the correspondence,
when responding to any notices issued by the Department
regarding tax collection or examination. See Tax Bulletin
05-5, in the Laws, Rules, and Decisions Section of the
Department’s website at www.tax.virginia.gov.
In addition, every member of the armed services deployed
outside of the United States is allowed an extension of their
due date. The extension will expire 90 days following the
completion of deployment. Service members who claim this
extension should write “Overseas Noncombat” on the top of
their tax returns.
Extension Requests
Extension Provisions: Virginia law provides an automatic
6-month filing extension for income tax returns. No application
for extension is required. The extension is for filing the return,
not for payment of the tax; therefore, you must pay at least
90% of your tax by the due date, May 1 for calendar year
filers. To make a payment of tentative tax, use Form 760IP.
If you file your return within 6 months after the due date but
do not meet the 90% payment requirement, an extension
penalty of 2% per month will apply to the balance of tax due
with your return from the due date through the date your

return is filed, to a maximum of 12% of the tax due. Interest
will also accrue on any balance of tax due with a return filed
within the extension period, regardless of whether the 90%
payment requirement is met.
If you file your return within 6 months after the due date
but do not pay the tax due at the time of filing, the unpaid
balance will be subject to a late payment penalty of 6% per
month from the date of filing through the date of payment, to a
maximum of 30%. The late payment penalty will be assessed
in addition to any extension penalty that may apply. The
automatic extension provisions apply only to returns that are
filed within 6 months from the due date. If you file your return
more than 6 months after the due date, a late filing penalty
of 30% will apply to the balance of tax due with your return.
Refund Returns: You do not need to file an extension if you
cannot file by the due date and you are certain that your return
will result in a refund. This is because the late filing penalty is
not assessed on refund returns. To receive a refund, however,
you must file within 3 years of the due date.
Foreign Income Exclusion: If you qualify for the federal
foreign income exclusion and have requested an extension
of time for filing your federal return, you may apply for an
extension of time to file your state return. You will be granted
an extension for 30 days after the date you expect to qualify
for the exclusion. You must apply by letter on or before the
1st day of the 7th month following the close of your taxable
year and enclose a copy of the approved federal extension
with your return when you file.

Where To File

To file by mail, use the mailing address listed on the back cover

is different than the one on your 2023 Virginia Return.
•	 	 Qualifying Farmer, Fisherman, or Merchant Seaman
		
Check this box if you are a self-employed farmer, fisherman,
or merchant seaman and at least two-thirds of your gross
income is from those employments. This information is
used to identify farmers, fishermen and merchant seamen
subject to special rules for paying estimated tax. See
“Addition To Tax For Underpayment Of Tax” section in

•		Earned Income Tax Credit Claimed on Federal Return

•	 one spouse files a separate return and the other spouse
has no gross income and was not a dependent of another
taxpayer. Note that in this case, the standard deduction is
limited to $8,000.
Married, Filing Separate Returns (Filing Status 4)
A separate return must be filed if one of the following applies:
•	 both spouses are nonresidents and both have income
from Virginia sources, but do not elect to file jointly;
•	 both spouses are nonresidents and both have income,
but only one has income from Virginia sources; or
•	 one is a resident and the other is a nonresident with income
from Virginia sources and they do not elect to file a joint
res­ident return.
A spouse may claim only those personal exemptions, itemized
deductions and other deductions that could have been
claimed had a separate federal return been completed. If the
number of dependent exemptions or the amount of itemized
deductions cannot be accounted for separately, they must
be proportionately allocated between each spouse based
on the income attributable to each. For exam­ple, if you file a
joint federal return, one of you is a nonresident and you are
unable to account separately for the child and dependent care
deduction, that deduction must be proportionately allocated
between each spouse based on the income attributable to
each. One spouse may never claim less than a whole personal
exemption. Even in the case where spouses have equal
income and one child, only one spouse may claim that child.

		 If you claimed an Earned Income Tax Credit on your 2024
federal return, enter the amount claimed.

Filing Status

Enter the correct number in the box to identify your filing status.
