New for 2022 For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2020, Iowa has adopted rolling conformity, meaning the state will automatically conform with any changes made to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), except as specified by Iowa law.

Step 5 Line 14 Subtract to the extent included, up to $1,000, the amount of: 1. Premium pay received by a certified peace officer who was designated by the governor of the State of Iowa as an eligible worker. 2. Premium pay received by a correctional officer or medical staff member at a correctional facility who was designated by the governor of the State of Iowa as an eligible worker. 3. Premium pay received by a teacher employed by an independently accredited school or a teacher employed by the State of Iowa who was designated by the governor as an eligible worker. 4. Teacher retention payment received by a teacher that was funded from moneys received by the State of Iowa from the elementary and secondary school emergency relief fund pursuant to the federal Coronavirus Response and Relief Appropriations Act or the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. 5. Teacher retention payment received by a teacher employed by a private school or specially accredited school, that was funded from the private sector worker premium pay program administered by the department of education that was funded from the State of Iowa moneys. 6. Recruitment and retention bonus received by a child care worker through the recruitment and retention bonus program administered by the department of human services.

Step 7 Line 27 In 2021, the federal Child Tax Credit was refundable for federal income tax purposes. Taxpayers who received a refund in 2022 from their 2021 federal income tax return are not required to add back any of the portion of the federal refund attributable to the refundable portion of the Child Tax Credit.

In 2021, the federal Child and Dependent Care Credit was partially refundable for federal income tax purposes. Taxpayers who received a refund in 2022 from their 2021 federal income tax return are not required to add back any of the portion of the federal refund attributable to the refundable portion of the federal Child and Dependent Care Credit.

Line 32 The qualified business income deduction has increased from 50% to 75% of the federal deduction.

Line 33 The DPAD 199A(g) deduction has increased from 50% to 75% of the federal deduction.

Step 8 Line 37 Taxpayers who itemize their deductions are allowed a charitable mileage rate of 50 cents per mile beginning July 1, 2022, which is an increase from 39 cents per mile.

Step 9 Line 52 Taxpayers who wish to claim the Farm to Food Donation Tax Credit are no longer required to submit their authorized food donation receipts to the Department of Revenue by January 15 and receive a tax credit certificate prior to claiming the tax credit. Instead, taxpayers may make tax credit claims directly on their Iowa

tax return by using their authorized food donation receipts to complete the IA 178 Farm to Food Donation Tax Credit Form and including that IA 178 form with their Iowa tax return.

Step 10 Line 62 Report any Iowa Composite Credits reported on IA Schedule CC on this line. Include IA Schedule CC (41-178) with your return. Track Your Return: Use Where's My Refund to check the status of individual income tax returns and amended individual income tax returns you've filed within the last year or over the phone at 515-281-3114 or 800-367- 3388. Conformity with The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2020, Iowa has adopted rolling conformity, meaning the state will automatically conform with any changes made to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), except as specified by Iowa law. For the most part, the calculation of Iowa net income is still the same as the calculation for federal adjusted gross income (AGI). However, the calculation of Iowa net income will be different from the federal AGI calculation when it comes to certain items described later in these instructions, such as depreciation for certain assets placed in service before tax year 2021, section 179 special election deductions, and the business interest expense limitation. Disclaimer: Please be advised that this is an informational document. It should not be relied upon or otherwise cited as precedent. This information is subject to change at any time. If a member of the public wishes to request a binding decision, he or she must file a Petition for Declaratory Order pursuant to Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—7.24. Who Must File? You must file an Iowa return if... you were a resident or part-year resident of Iowa in 2022 and meet any of the following requirements. Nonresidents, see items f. and g.

Note to married couples: Incomes of both spouses must be included when determining who must file.

a) You had a net income (line 26, IA 1040) of more than $9,000 and your filing status is single. ($24,000 if 65 or older on 12/31/22) b) You had a net income (line 26, IA 1040) of more than $13,500 and your filing status is other than single. ($32,000 if you or your spouse is 65 or older on 12/31/22) c) You were claimed as a dependent on another person’s Iowa return and had a net income (line 26, IA 1040) of $5,000 or more. d) You were in the military service with Iowa shown as your legal residence even though stationed outside of Iowa unless you are below the income thresholds above.

In the case of married nonresidents, the spouses' combined income is used to determine if their income is high enough to require them to file an Iowa return. To understand “Iowa-source income,” see the instructions for lines 1 through 26 of the IA 126. g) You were a nonresident or part-year resident and subject to Iowa lump-sum tax or Iowa alternative minimum tax (even if Iowa-source income is less than $1,000).

Note: If you do not meet any of the above requirements but you had Iowa tax withheld and you wish to receive a refund, you must file an Iowa return.

Step 1 Before You Begin Step: 1 Step Subject: Name and Address

Make sure you have received all W-2s, 1099s, and other tax documents needed to prepare your return. Important: Enter your Social Security Number(s) in the appropriate boxes on the form. Otherwise, we may be unable to process your return. The Iowa Department of Revenue may require proof of any item listed on a return or schedule. Filing Period If your filing period is other than calendar year 2022, enter the beginning and ending dates of your fiscal tax year on the line provided above the name and address boxes on the return. Name and Mailing Address Enter your name and current mailing address on the tax return. If using a foreign mailing address, in place of the domestic city, state, ZIP, include the foreign city, country, and postal code. Provide the Department with your updated address if you move after your return is filed. Send an email to idrindividualtax@iowa.gov Note: The email address entered will NOT be used to request or provide confidential information without your authorization. If You or Your Spouse is 65 or Older on 12/31/22 - Check the box. County Enter the number of the county you lived in as of December 31, 2022. If you do not know your county number, view a list of districts by county and number. • Nonresidents and part-year residents who moved out of Iowa before December 31, 2022, should enter "00" as your county number. • Part-year residents who moved into Iowa should enter the number of the Iowa county in which you lived on December 31, 2022. • Military personnel should enter the county number of their Iowa residence, even if the service member is not physically present in Iowa on the last day of the tax year.

6

School District Number Enter the district in which you lived on December 31, 2022. View a list of districts by county and number. This is not necessarily the district where your children attended school. Even if you do not have children, you must enter this number. Other possible resources to identify your school district information include: • Your voter registration card • Search “school surtax” from the Iowa Tax Mapper • Your county assessor’s website Nonresidents, Part-Year Residents, and Military Personnel • Nonresidents: Those who did not live in Iowa at all during 2022 should enter "0000" for the school district number. You are not subject to school district surtax on line 54. • Part-year residents who moved into Iowa should enter the Iowa school district in which you lived on the last day of 2022. You may be subject to school district surtax on line 54. • Part-year residents who moved out of Iowa before December 31, 2022, should enter "9999." You are not subject to school district surtax on line 54. • Military personnel should enter the school district number of their Iowa residence, even if the service member is not physically present in Iowa on the last day of the tax year. You may be subject to school district surtax on line 54. Foreign Currency Taxpayers who are paid in foreign currency must convert the currency to U.S. dollars as required for federal tax purposes. Rounding to Whole Dollars Use whole dollars to complete your return instead of dollars and cents. To round, drop amounts under 50 cents and increase amounts from 50 to 99 cents to the next dollar. For example, $129.49 becomes $129 and $235.50 becomes $236. If you need to add two or more amounts to enter on a line, add them together first, then round. For example, if you received two W-2 forms, one showing wages of $5,000.55 and the other for $18,500.73, add them for a total of $23,501.28. The amount you enter on line 1 of the IA 1040 would be $23,501.

Step 2 Filing Status Step: 2 Step Subject: Filing Status

Your filing status on the Iowa return is usually the same filing status as on your federal return. However, married taxpayers have the option of either filing jointly (status 2), married filing separately on a combined return (status 3) or married filing separate returns (status 4) on the Iowa return, no matter how they filed on the federal return. If you and your spouse both have income, you may owe less tax by filing status 3 or 4.

7

Status 1. Single Check filing status 1 if you were unmarried, divorced, or legally separated on December 31, 2022, and do not meet the requirements for any other filing status. All single filers must answer the question, "Were you claimed as a dependent on another person's Iowa return?" If this question is not answered, you will be taxed as a dependent. Status 2. Married Filing Joint Return Check filing status 2 if you are married and want to report your income, deductions, and exemptions together in one column. Both spouses must sign the return. Married taxpayers filing a joint return Both spouses are jointly and severally liable for the total tax due on the return, except when one spouse is eligible for relief from joint and several liability under criteria established pursuant to section 6015 of the Internal Revenue Code. Please note: a) You must have been married on December 31, 2022, or b) If your spouse died during 2022 and you did not remarry during the year, you may file status 2, 3, or 4. Nonresidents and Part-Year Residents of Iowa - Married taxpayers may file using status 2, 3, or 4 for their Iowa return even if only one spouse had income from Iowa sources. Spouse with debts - If a spouse has outstanding debts that may be automatically paid (offset) with your refund, be sure to read our Refunds May Be Used to Pay Debt information. Status 3. Married Filing Separately on Combined Return Check filing status 3 if you are married and want to file separately on one return. If you receive a refund, it will be made payable to both spouses. Both spouses must sign the return. Married taxpayers filing separately on a combined return Both spouses are jointly and severally liable for the total tax due on the return, except when one spouse is eligible for relief from joint and several liability under criteria established pursuant to section 6015 of the Internal Revenue Code. Spouse with debts If your spouse has outstanding debt that may be automatically paid (offset) with your refund, be sure to read our Refunds May Be Used to Pay Debt information. Taxpayers using filing status 3 or 4 may have to prorate (divide) certain items between them on the return. These items include federal income tax refunds, additional federal income tax paid, etc. This information is included with instructions for most lines of the return. Nonresidents and Part-Year Residents of Iowa - Married taxpayers may file using status 2, 3, or 4 for their Iowa return even if only one spouse had income from Iowa sources. Status 4. Married Filing Separate Returns Check filing status 4 if you and your spouse file separate tax returns. Write your spouse's Social Security Number, name, and net income in the spaces provided at the top of the return in Step 2. The processing of refunds, alternate tax calculations, or low income exemptions will be delayed without this information or supporting schedules.

Taxpayers using filing status 3 or 4 may have to prorate (divide) certain items between them on the return. These items include federal income tax refunds, additional federal income tax paid, etc. This information is included with instructions for each line of the return. Nonresidents and Part-Year Residents of Iowa - Married taxpayers may file using status 2, 3, or 4 for their Iowa return even if only one spouse had income from Iowa sources. Married Separate Filers: Married taxpayers filing married filing status 3 or 4 must use the combined income of both spouses in determining eligibility for exemption from tax. If either spouse has a net operating loss that is carried back or forward, then the other spouse cannot use the low income exemption. If the spouse with the net operating loss chooses not to carry the loss back or forward, then the other can claim the low income exemption. A statement must be attached to the return saying that the spouse with the net operating loss will not carry it back or forward. If one spouse itemizes deductions, then both spouses must itemize deductions, even if separate Iowa returns are filed. Status 5. Head of Household Check filing status 5 if you are filing as head of household for federal income tax purposes. If you have a qualifying person (as defined by the Internal Revenue Service) living with you who you did not claim as a dependent on this return, enter the person's name and Social Security Number. If you are filing as a qualifying widow(er) with a dependent child for federal income tax purposes, you cannot file as head of household on your Iowa return. Status 6. Qualifying Widow(er) with Dependent Child Check filing status 6 if you meet the federal filing requirements for qualifying widow(er).

Step 4 Reportable Social Security Benefits Step: 4 Step Subject: Reportable Social Security Benefits

Iowa does not tax Social Security benefits. While Social Security benefits are excluded from income when computing tax, some Social Security benefits are included as income in determining whether a taxpayer has sufficient income to file an Iowa return, and are included as income for purposes of computing the alternate tax on line 39.

If you filed a joint federal return, enter the totals for both spouses. Do not include Railroad Retirement benefits from form RRB-1099 here. 1.

2. Enter one-half of line 1 amount 2.

3. Add amounts from the federal form 1040 on lines 1, 2b, 3b, 4b, 5b, 7 and 8 3.

7. Add lines 2 through 6 7.

8. Enter total adjustments from federal form 1040, Schedule 1, lines 11 through 20, line 23, plus the total other adjustments reported on line 26 8.

9. Subtract line 8 from line 7 9.

* Notes: Depreciation / Section 179 / and All Other Iowa Net Income Decoupling Iowa taxpayers who received Social Security benefits in 2022 and claimed depreciation / section 179 on their federal returns or have other Iowa net income nonconformity may have to recompute their reportable benefits on the worksheet. For other Iowa nonconformity adjustments see line 14 and IA Schedule A. Those who need to recompute the reportable Social Security benefits should add the adjustment from line 5 of Schedule IA 4562A and all other Iowa net income nonconformity to the other amounts shown on line 5 of the Social Security Worksheet from the federal return and the RRB-1099. The rest of the form is then completed with the amounts normally used to complete the worksheet from the federal 1040. Include the following incomes or adjustments to income on line 5 if applicable. (These were excluded from federal AGI): • foreign-earned income • income excluded by residents of Puerto Rico or American Samoa • proceeds from Savings Bonds used for higher education and • employer-provided adoption benefits. Railroad Retirement Benefits Although Railroad Retirement benefits are not taxable, one-half of the Net Social Security Equivalent Benefits from Box 5 of the RRB-1099 received must be used to determine the amount of Social Security benefits that are reportable to Iowa. Interest from Federal Securities For purposes of determining reportable Social Security benefits, you must also include interest from federal securities. Married Separate Filers: a. If both spouses received Social Security benefits, the reportable amount is allocated between the spouses in the ratio of the benefits received by one spouse to the total benefits received. (Examples of how to prorate) b. If only one spouse received benefits, that spouse will report the calculated portion of the benefits.

Step 5 Wages, Salaries, Tips, etc. Line: 1 Step: 5 Step Subject: Gross Income

College Savings Iowa or Iowa Advisor 529 Plans: Amounts received from the cancellation of a participation agreement or other non-qualifying withdrawals to the extent the amount was previously deducted on the IA 1040. Qualifying withdrawals may include up to $10,000 per beneficiary per year for tuition expenses of attending an accredited elementary or secondary (K-12) school in Iowa or an out-of-state elementary or secondary school that educates a beneficiary who is a child “requiring special education” under Iowa Code section 256B.2. The $10,000 per-beneficiary cap applies even if

21

the beneficiary receives money from multiple College Savings Iowa or Iowa Advisor 529 Plan accounts. The $10,000 annual cap does not apply to withdrawals used to pay qualified education expenses related to higher education. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2019, qualifying withdrawals include withdrawals for certain expenses related to participation in an apprenticeship program and withdrawals, up to $10,000, used to pay either principal or interest on a qualified education loan on behalf of a beneficiary or a beneficiary’s sibling. If you withdrew funds from a 529 Plan to pay qualified higher education expenses and you received a refund of those funds, the refund amount is considered a qualifying withdrawal if it is recontributed to the same Iowa 529 Plan account from which it was withdrawn within sixty (60) of the date of the refund. To be a qualifying withdrawal, the recontribution amount cannot exceed the amount of the refund from the qualifying higher education institution. E. Director's fees. F.

Non-qualified withdrawals required to be added back here are assessed a penalty equal to 10% of the amount of the withdrawal, unless the non- qualifying withdrawal was made by reason of the death of the account holder or certain other circumstances. If an account holder makes a non-qualifying withdrawal, they are not permitted to claim a deduction for any future contribution to any First-time Homebuyer Savings Account. All withdrawals (qualifying and non-qualifying) from your First-time Homebuyer Savings Account must be reported to the Department on the Iowa First-time Homebuyer Savings Account Withdrawal Form within 90 days of the date of withdrawal.

The Net Premium Tax Credit and the Health Coverage Tax Credit are reportable income to the extent these credits were a reimbursement for health insurance premiums deducted from Iowa income in a prior year. The Iowa 1040 departs from the federal 1040 in the treatment of health insurance premiums by allowing taxpayers to elect to deduct qualifying health insurance premiums as an adjustment to Iowa gross income. The Iowa return allows a deduction for health insurance premiums on IA 1040, line 18, rather than reporting those same premiums as a medical expense deduction on the IA 1040 Schedule A for Iowa Itemized Deductions.

22

If the deduction is taken on the IA 1040 Schedule A, then the federal tax guidance should be followed when addressing the complications due to the impact of the Federal Excess Advance Premium Tax Credit repayment, the Net Premium Tax Credit, and the Health Coverage Tax Credit. However, if the deduction is taken on IA 1040, line 18, then the IA 1040, rather than the Iowa Schedule A, must reflect the impact of the Federal Excess Advance Premium Tax Credit repayment, the Net Premium Tax Credit, and the Health Coverage Tax Credit. The Iowa expanded instructions for this line and IA 1040, line 18 set forth the Department’s guidance for the correct reporting of these amounts. O. Iowa ABLE Savings Plan. Amounts received from cancellation of accounts or other non-qualifying withdrawal to the extent the amount was previously deducted on the IA 1040 X. Other nonconformity adjustments. See IA 101 Nonconformity Adjustments Schedule. Include the IA 101 with your return. Y. Any adjustment from IA 163 Interest Expense Adjustment resulting in a reduction to income.

If you have questions about the eligibility of payments you received under the above listed programs please contact your employer’s human resource department. Married Separate Filers: The spouse to whom the income was paid must report that income. Modifications to partnership and S corporation income are allocated between spouses in the same manner as that income was divided on IA 1040, line 10. Gross Income Line: 15 Step: 5 Step Subject: Gross Income Add lines 1 through 14 and enter the total.

Step 6 Payments to an IRA, KEOGH, or SEP Line: 16 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income All Taxpayers All taxpayers report adjustments from all sources in this section. Enter the amount claimed on your federal tax return for payments made to your IRA, Keogh Plan, SEP, SIMPLE, or Qualified Plans. Nonresidents and Part-Year Residents Nonresidents and part-year residents must also report Iowa-source adjustments to income on Schedule IA 126, lines 16-24. Enter the amount claimed on your federal tax return for payments made to your IRA, Keogh Plan, SEP, SIMPLE, or Qualified Plans. Roth IRA Payments made to a Roth IRA are not deductible. Married Separate Filers: a. If only one spouse has earned income, that individual can contribute up to $6,000 per year ($7,000 if 50 or older) to an IRA account of the nonworking spouse and up to $6,000 per year ($7,000 if 50 or older) to an IRA account of the individual. When claiming the deduction between spouses, the working spouse will usually claim all of the deduction, not to exceed the federal limits for both spouses. However, if the nonworking spouse has any earned income, then the nonworking spouse must claim the deduction to the extent of their earned income. The working spouse will then claim the balance of the IRA contribution of both spouses. b. If both spouses earned income and made contributions to an IRA account, each spouse must claim their own contribution, not to exceed $6,000 per spouse ($7,000 if 50 or older). c. If both spouses made contributions to an IRA but only a portion of the contribution is deductible on the federal return, the amount of the IRA deduction that is allowed for federal income tax purposes must be allocated between the spouses in the ratio of the IRA contribution made by each spouse to the total IRA contribution made by both spouses. d. For Keogh Plans, SEPs, SIMPLE, or Qualified Plans, each spouse must claim their individual contributions.

24

Deductible Part of Self-Employment Tax Line: 17 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income Enter the amount of self-employment tax that was deductible on your federal 1040, Schedule 1, line 15 in computing federal adjusted gross income. Married Separate Filers: The deduction is allocated in the ratio of self-employment tax paid by each spouse to the total self- employment tax paid. Health Insurance Premium Line: 18 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income You may take a deduction for certain health insurance premiums on line 18 instead of IA 1040, Schedule A. Your IA 1040, Schedule A cannot contain any health insurance premiums which are used as a deduction on line 18. Typically, employer health insurance premiums are made on a pre-tax basis when they are deducted from wages. These premiums are not eligible to be claimed on line 18 or IA 1040, Schedule A. Enter 100% of the amount paid for: • health insurance premiums paid with post-tax dollars • supplemental health insurance, such as: o Medicare B supplemental medical insurance o Medicare D voluntary prescription drug insurance • dental insurance premiums paid with post-tax dollars • long-term nursing home coverage premiums paid with post-tax dollars regardless of age Do NOT include: • “Medicare tax withheld” on your W-2 • premiums paid with pre-tax dollars • premiums which are later reimbursed, in the same tax year Federal Health Insurance Credits Any Excess Advance Premium Tax Credit repayment from the 2021 federal form 1040, Schedule 2, line 2 will be entered on IA 1040, line 18 in the year paid. Any repayment calculated on your 2022 federal return cannot be included on the 2022 IA 1040, line 18. The Net Premium Tax Credit from the 2022 federal form 1040, Schedule 3, line 8, and the Health Coverage Tax Credit from the 2022 federal form 1040, Schedule 3, line 12c will be reported as Other Income on the 2023 IA 1040. The federal Net Premium Tax Credit and the federal Health Coverage Tax Credit are reportable income to the extent these credits were a reimbursement for health insurance premiums deducted from Iowa income in a prior year.

The Iowa 1040 departs from the federal 1040 in the treatment of health insurance premiums by allowing taxpayers to elect to deduct qualifying health insurance premiums as an adjustment to Iowa gross income. The Iowa return allows a deduction for certain health insurance premiums on IA 1040, line 18, rather than reporting those same premiums as a medical expense deduction on the IA 1040 Schedule A for Iowa Itemized Deductions. If the deduction is taken on the IA 1040 Schedule A, then the federal tax guidance should be followed when addressing the complications due to the impact of the Federal Excess Advance Premium Tax Credit repayment, the Net Premium Tax Credit, and the Health Coverage Tax Credit. The Iowa expanded instructions for this line and IA 1040, line 14 set forth the Department’s guidance for the correct reporting of these amounts. Premiums Paid with Pretax Dollars This deduction is not available to individuals who have paid health or dental insurance premiums on a pre-tax basis. Pre-tax occurs when an employer subtracts the amount of the health or dental insurance premium from an employee's gross wages before withholding federal and state income taxes and calculating FICA. See your payroll department if you do not know whether or not your health or dental insurance was paid on a pre-tax basis. The federal Affordable Care Act requires employers to report the cost of coverage under an employer- sponsored group health plan. This reporting is for informational purposes only and will provide employees useful and comparable consumer information on the cost of their health care coverage paid by the employer in box 12 of the W2, code DD. The code DD amount is paid by employers and is not used for tax purposes. Married Separate Filers: If one spouse is employed and has health or dental insurance premiums paid through their wages, that spouse will claim the entire deduction. If both spouses pay health or dental insurance premiums through their wages, each spouse will claim what that individual paid. If both spouses have self-employment income, the deduction for self-employed health or dental insurance must be allocated between the spouses in the ratio of each spouse's self-employment income to the total self- employment income of both spouses. If health or dental insurance premiums are paid directly by one spouse, that spouse will claim the entire deduction. For this net income calculation, do not include line 18, the health or dental insurance deduction. Penalty on Early Withdrawal of Savings Line: 19 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income The form 1099-INT given to you by your bank or other savings institutions will show the amount of any penalty you were charged because you withdrew funds from your time savings deposit before its maturity. Enter this amount here. Include interest income from the time deposit on IA 1040, line 2. Married Separate Filers: Divide the penalty amount between spouses based upon registered ownership of the time deposit. • Jointly held: Divide the penalty equally between spouses. • Held in the name of only one spouse: Allocate the entire penalty to that spouse.

26

Alimony Paid Line: 20 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income

Enter the amount of alimony payments or separate maintenance payments that were deductible on your federal tax return. Married Separate Filers: Only the spouse liable for these payments can deduct the alimony paid. Pension / Retirement Income Exclusion Line: 21 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income

If you or your spouse receive a pension, an annuity, a self-employed retirement plan, deferred compensation, IRA distribution, or other retirement plan benefits, you may be eligible to exclude from Iowa income tax part or all of the retirement income that is taxable on your federal return. The Roth conversion income, included in net income, is eligible for this exclusion. Social Security benefits, railroad retirement benefits, and military retirement pay are not included. Since railroad retirement benefits and military retirement pay are not reported on IA 1040, line 9, an exclusion does not apply on line 21. However, if you are receiving military retirement pay, you may still be eligible to exclude other non-military pension income. The exclusion is up to $6,000 for individuals who file status 1, 5, or 6 and up to $12,000 for married taxpayers who file status 2, 3, or 4. (If, for example, an individual has $5,000 in pension / retirement income, the exclusion will be the actual $5,000, not the maximum of $6,000.) To take this exclusion the pensioner or retirement income recipient must meet one of the following conditions: a. 55 years of age or older on December 31, 2022, or b. disabled, or c. a surviving spouse or a survivor having an insurable interest in an individual who has qualified for the exclusion in 2022 on the basis of age or disability. A survivor other than the surviving spouse is considered to have an "insurable interest" if the survivor is a son, daughter, mother, or father of the annuitant or pensioner. Only the pension income of the spouse who meets the eligibility requirements can be shown on line 21. Please see the examples below for further guidance. EXAMPLE 1: A married couple elected to file separately on the combined return form. One spouse was 52 years of age and received a pension income of $20,000. The other spouse was 55 years of age and received no pension income. Since the spouse receiving the pension income was not 55 years of age, no exclusion is allowed on the Iowa return.

27

EXAMPLE 2: A married couple elected to file separately on the combined return form. One spouse was 52 years of age and received a pension income of $10,000. The other spouse was 55 years of age and received a pension income of $8,000. Since only one spouse receiving the pension income was 55 years of age, an exclusion of $8,000 is allowed on the Iowa return. The exclusion of $8,000 is allowed since a married couple is allowed a combined exclusion of up to $12,000. EXAMPLE 3: A married couple elected to file a joint return. One spouse was 52 years of age and received a pension income of $10,000. The other spouse was 55 years of age and received a pension income of $5,000. Since only one spouse receiving the pension income was 55 years of age, an exclusion of $5,000 is allowed on the Iowa return. EXAMPLE 4: A spouse dies during the year at the age of 60 without receiving any pension income. The surviving spouse is not disabled, is 50 years old, and receives a pension from a previous employer. The surviving spouse is not eligible for any pension exclusion. Since the surviving spouse is the only one receiving the pension income, the eligibility of the deceased spouse doesn't allow the survivor to take the exclusion. Had the pension income been attributable to the deceased spouse, then the surviving spouse could take the exclusion. EXAMPLE 5: A 54-year old single filer receives $5,000 from a deceases parent’s pension. The deceased parent would have qualified for the pension exclusion. The 54-year old also receives pension income of their own in the amount of $10,000. The 54-year old can take the pension exclusion in the amount of $5,000 based upon the insurable interest in the parent who would have qualified. EXAMPLE 6: Same facts as example 5, except the 54-year old is married and the amount of the parent's pension income received is $15,000. The 54-year old spouse does not meet the pension exclusion requirements either. The allowable pension exclusion is $12,000. Married Separate Filers: If both spouses have pension income, and both meet the eligibility requirements, the exclusion of up to $12,000 is prorated between them in the ratio that each spouse's pension income relates to the total pension income received by both spouses. If only one spouse has pension income and meets the eligibility requirements, that spouse takes the entire exclusion of up to $12,000. The spouse who has no pension income receives no exclusion. Moving Expense Deduction Line: 22 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income Enter moving expenses reported on the 2022 federal 1040, Schedule 1, line 14. Include a copy of federal form 3903. Married Separate Filers: This deduction must be divided between spouses based on earned income received after their move. If one spouse can show that the move was made for that spouse, that spouse is entitled to the entire deduction.

Iowa Capital Gain Deduction for Certain Business / Farm Assets / ESOP Stock Only Line: 23 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income This is a deduction of qualifying net capital gain realized in 2022. Note: Line 23 can be more than the net total reported on Schedule D. Unrelated losses are not to be included in the computation of the deduction. An example of an unrelated loss is the sale of common stock at a loss. The Iowa capital gain deduction is subject to review by the Iowa Department of Revenue. The deduction must be reported on one of six forms by completing the applicable Capital Gain Deduction Worksheet: a. To claim a deduction for capital gains from the qualifying sale of cattle, horses, or breeding livestock, complete the IA 100A. b. To claim a deduction for capital gains from the qualifying sale of real property used in a farm business, complete the IA 100B. c. To claim a deduction for capital gains from the qualifying sale of real property used in a non-farm business, complete the IA 100C. d. To claim a deduction for capital gains from the qualifying sale of timber, complete the IA 100D. e. To claim a deduction for capital gains from the qualifying sale of a business, complete the IA 100E. f. To claim a deduction for capital gains from the qualifying sale of employer securities to a qualified Iowa employee stock ownership plan (ESOP), complete the IA 100F. The completed form must be included with the IA 1040 to support the Iowa capital gain deduction. The Department will use this form to verify that the taxpayer qualifies for the deduction. The Department may request additional information if needed. Complete a separate IA 100B-100F for each distinct property sale, although multiple livestock sales can, in some instances, be reported on one IA 100A (see IA 100A instructions). Complete the applicable form each year of a qualifying installment sale. Complete the applicable form even if the gain was passed-through from a separate entity. The sale of assets by a C corporation generally does not qualify for the Iowa capital gain deduction. However, the gain from a corporate liquidation under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) section 331, or from certain stock sales which are treated as an acquisition of assets under IRC section 338, may qualify for the Iowa capital gain deduction. For taxpayers filing separately on the same return, each spouse must complete the appropriate IA 100 form for the Iowa capital gain deduction claimed based on the spouse’s ownership share in the property. For more information on the Iowa capital gain deduction, see the instructions for the respective IA 100 form, Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—302.38, and the Capital Gain Flowcharts. Eligible Property Sales The Iowa capital gain deduction is available for the net capital gain from qualifying sales of the following properties:

29

a. Cattle, Horses, and Breeding Livestock A taxpayer may deduct the net capital gain from the sale of cattle and horses used for breeding, draft, dairy, or sporting purposes and held for at least 24 months. A taxpayer also may deduct the net capital gain from the sale of other livestock used for breeding purposes and held for at least 12 months. To qualify for the deduction, the taxpayer must receive greater than 50% of their gross income from farming and ranching in the tax year. However, the sale of qualifying livestock to a lineal descendant of the taxpayer eliminates the requirement to have in excess of 50% of gross income from farming and ranching. b. Real Property Used in a Farm Business A taxpayer may deduct the net capital gain from the sale of real property used in a farm business and held for at least 10 years. Additionally, the taxpayer must materially participate in the farm business. Typically, the taxpayer must materially participate in the farm business for the 10 years prior to the sale. Alternatively, a retired or disabled farmer is treated as materially participating in the farm business for the current year if the farmer materially participated for five of the eight years prior to retirement or disability. c. Real Property Used in a Non-Farm Business A taxpayer may deduct the net capital gain from the sale of real property used in a business and held for at least 10 years. Additionally, the taxpayer must materially participate in the business, typically for the 10 years prior to the sale. d. Timber A taxpayer may deduct the net capital gain from the sale of timber held for at least 12 months. “Timber” means timber that qualifies for capital gain treatment under section 1231 of the Internal Revenue Code. Timber includes evergreen trees, such as Christmas trees, that are more than six years old at the time they are cut and sold for ornamental purposes. e. Business A taxpayer may deduct the net capital gain from the sale of a business held for at least 10 years. The sale of a business means the sale of all or substantially all of the tangible personal property or service of the business. Service of the business is intangible personal property used in the business for the production of income such as client lists, goodwill, patents, trade names, and similar items. This means that the sale of the assets of a business during the tax year must represent at least 90% of the fair market value of all of the tangible personal property of the business on the date of sale of the business assets. Additionally, the taxpayer must materially participate in the business, typically for the 10 years prior to the sale. However, the sale of a business to a lineal descendent of the taxpayer eliminates the requirement for material participation in the business. f. ESOP A taxpayer may deduct 50% of the net capital gain from the sale of exchange of employer securities of an Iowa corporation to a qualified Iowa ESOP. To be eligible, the Iowa ESOP must own at least 30% of all outstanding employer securities issued by the Iowa corporation after completion of the transaction. Non-Qualifying Capital Gain Sales Capital gains from sales of the following properties typically do not qualify for the Iowa capital gain deduction: • Investment property, such as real property held for speculation but not used in a business • Bonds and stocks, other than a qualifying sale of employer securities of an Iowa corporation to an Iowa ESOP

30

• Ownership interests and capital stock in a business, other than a qualifying sale of employer securities of an Iowa corporation to an Iowa ESOP • Merchandise and inventory of a business Installment Sales In the case of installment sales of qualifying property, only installments received in the 2022 tax year qualify for the capital gain deduction on the 2022 return. Eligibility for the deduction is determined at the time of the installment sale. Accrual-method taxpayers: See instructions for IA 1040, line 14. Net Operating Losses For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 1998, the capital gain deduction otherwise allowable is not allowed in computing a net operating loss (NOL) deduction for purposes of carrying the net operating loss deduction to another tax year. Further, when applying an NOL from tax year 1998 or later, the capital gain deduction is not allowed in the carryback or carryforward tax year and must be added back to that year’s income to the extent of the NOL. Married Separate Filers: Divide the capital gain deduction based on ownership of the asset. a. Jointly held: Divide equally between spouses. b. If other than jointly held: Divide between spouses based on percentage of ownership. Other Adjustments Line: 24 Step: 6 Step Subject: Adjustments to Income Enter the total of other allowable adjustments as described below. Include an explanation for each adjustment. Do not include any deduction for the small business health insurance tax credit that was not allowed as a deduction on the federal return. a. Accrual method Taxpayers who had capital gains in 2022 that were reported on the installment method for federal tax purposes and the entire gain was reported for Iowa in a prior year do not have to report installments. b. Active duty military pay Members of the armed forces, armed forces military reserve, or the national guard in an active duty status can exclude pay received from the federal government for military service performed, to the extent it was included in line 15, Gross Income. c. Alternative motor vehicle deduction Alternative motor vehicle deduction of $2,000 for taxpayers who are eligible for the federal Alternative Motor Vehicle Credit under Internal Revenue Code section 30B and who complete federal form 8910.

31

d. Capital gain from installment sales reported on the 2001 Iowa return using the accrual method The installment method for reporting capital gain for accrual accounting taxpayers is adopted for Iowa individual income tax purposes for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2002. However, if you used the accrual method of accounting and reported the entire capital gain on the 2001 Iowa return which was reported on the installment method for federal tax purposes, deduct the amount reported of any additional installments from that capital gain on this line. e. Capital or ordinary gain from involuntary conversion related to eminent domain An exclusion of both capital gain and ordinary gain is available for individual income taxpayers relating to capital or ordinary gain income realized by a taxpayer as a result of the involuntary conversion of property due to eminent domain. Eminent domain relates to the authority of certain government agencies or instrumentalities of government to condemn private property for any public improvement, public purpose, or other public use. If there is no ordinary or capital gain recognized for tax purposes because the converted property is replaced with property that is similar to, or related in use to, the converted property, there is no exclusion allowed for Iowa tax purposes until the remaining gain is recognized for federal tax purposes or until the time of disposition of the replacement property. Any exclusion allowed for Iowa tax purposes does not alter the basis of the property as established for federal tax purposes, so the basis will remain the same for both federal and Iowa tax purposes. f. Claim of Right Deduction If income was repaid in the 2022 tax year and was reported and taxed on a prior Iowa return, that income may be deducted on the 2022 tax return. However, it may be to your advantage to take a credit on line 62. You may take either the deduction on line 24 or take a credit on line 62, but not both. Example 1: A taxpayer reported $7,000 in unemployment benefits on the 2021 Iowa return. The taxpayer’s 2021 AGI exceeded $150,000 without including the unemployment income. The taxpayer did not qualify for the unemployment exclusion. In early 2022 the taxpayer was notified that $4,000 of the unemployment benefits had to be repaid. The benefits were repaid by the end of 2022. The taxpayer may claim a $4,000 income adjustment on line 24 of the 2022 Iowa return. Example 2: A taxpayer received $20,000 Iowa unemployment benefits in 2021. $10,200 of those benefits were excluded from tax. The taxpayer had to repay $15,000 of unemployment. $20,000 - $10,2000 = $9,800 of benefits were reported and taxed in 2021. The taxpayer may claim a $9,800 income adjustment on line 24 of the 2022 Iowa return. g. College Savings Iowa or Iowa Advisor 529 Education Savings Plans If you or your spouse participate in the College Savings Iowa 529 Plan (Iowa Educational Savings Plan Trust) or the Iowa Advisor 529 Plan, each may deduct an amount contributed not to exceed $3,522 per beneficiary. This deduction is only available for contributions to Iowa 529 plans. You must be the "participant" in the Iowa 529 plan in order to deduct your contributions. If you are not the "participant" in the Iowa 529 plan, you may not deduct your contributions to that plan. Example: Adam and Tara have 2 children; Charlie and Ruth. Adam opens two 529 accounts – one for Charlie and one for Ruth. Tara also opens two 529 accounts one for Charlie and one for Ruth. Both Adam and Tara can

32

take up to $3,522 per child’s account. Adam and Tara each are eligible for a deduction of up to $7,044. Adam and Tara’s total potential deduction amount is $14,088. Only contributions to these two Iowa 529 plans qualify for a deduction on the Iowa return; however, a rollover from another state's 529 plan to one of the Iowa plans qualifies toward the deduction for Iowa income tax. If you received a refund of any qualified higher education expenses from an eligible educational institution and recontributed the refund amount consistent with Iowa Code section 422.7(32)(c)(1)(f)(i), you may not deduct the recontribution amount when calculating your Iowa net income and the recontribution amount will not be considered when determining whether you have met the annual deduction cap. Be sure you have properly shown these contributions as a deduction for one of these plans. Most computer software programs will ask for this information and correctly indicate the appropriate reason for the deduction. Individuals making a contribution on or before the Iowa income tax return filing deadline (April 30 for calendar year tax filers), excluding extensions, can elect to have that contribution treated as though it was made on the last day of the preceding calendar year, which allows them to claim the income tax deduction for the most recently completed tax year. h. Disability income exclusion You may exclude from Iowa tax a portion of the disability pay you received in 2022 if you meet ALL of the following conditions: • You received disability pay, and • You were not yet 65 when your tax year ended, and • You retired on disability and were totally and permanently disabled when you retired, and • On January 1, 2022, you had not yet reached the age when your employer's retirement program would have required you to retire. If you meet all of these conditions, obtain form IA 2440. You MUST complete form IA 2440 to take this exclusion. A doctor's statement must accompany each year's return attesting to the taxpayer's complete and permanent disability. i. NONCONFORMITY ADJUSTMENT: Domestic production activities deduction resulting from a tax year beginning prior to January 1, 2019 (EXPIRED) RESERVED FOR FUTURE USE j. First-Time Homebuyer Savings Account qualifying contributions You may deduct up to $2,181 ($4,363 for married filing jointly) in qualifying Iowa First-Time Homebuyer Savings Account contributions made during the tax year. This deduction limitation is based on the account holder, so even though you may have contributed to multiple accounts for more than one beneficiary, your total deduction may not exceed $2,181 ($4,363 for married filing jointly). Contributions are only deductible if they are made to accounts that have been designated as First-Time Homebuyer Savings Accounts by submitting the Account Holder and Designated Beneficiary Form to the Department. The Account Holder and Designated Beneficiary Form must be submitted to the Department by April 30 of the calendar year following the year in which you opened the account to the address on that form.

33

For example, if you opened the account in 2022, the form is due no later than April 30, 2023. The April 30 deadline applies even if you are a fiscal year filer. The Account Holder and Designated Beneficiary Form must be submitted to the Department separately from your 2022 Iowa income tax return. Taxpayers are also required to complete an Iowa Department of Revenue annual report form and include it with their Iowa income tax return. Complete and send a Withdrawal Form, 41-163 to the Iowa Department of Revenue when money is withdrawn. Note: this form must be submitted to the Department within ninety (90) days of the date of any withdrawal of funds in any amount from the First-Time Homebuyer Savings Account. Interest and earnings income from a qualified First-Time Homebuyer Savings Account are exempt from Iowa individual income tax. k.

Gains or losses from distressed sale transactions o. Health savings account deduction from federal form 1040, Schedule 1, line 13. p. Injured veterans program, contributions to Do not put on IA Schedule A. An Injured Veteran's Grant Program is available through the Iowa Department of Veterans Affairs. Money appropriated for these grants will be given to veterans injured in a combat zone after September 11, 2001. The grants cannot exceed $10,000 per injured veteran. The Department of Veterans Affairs may also receive money from any public or private source for purposes of providing grants to injured veterans. A deduction is allowed for the amount paid by a taxpayer to the Department of Veterasn Affairs for the purposes of providing grants to the Injured Veterans Grant Program. Do not claim these amounts on the Iowa Schedule A. q.

Nonresidents and Part-Year Residents In addition to the exemption provisions above, if you were a nonresident or part-year resident and had net income from Iowa sources of less than $1,000 (see note below) you are exempt from Iowa tax. To review instructions for "Iowa-source income," see the instructions for lines 1-26 of the IA 126. If you had Iowa tax withheld and are requesting a refund, or choose to file an Iowa return even though you aren't required to do so, you must complete the entire IA 1040 and the entire IA 126. Note: If you were a nonresident or part-year resident and subject to Iowa lump-sum tax or Iowa alternative minimum tax (even if Iowa-source income is less than $1,000), you are required to file an Iowa return reporting the Iowa lump-sum or Iowa alternative minimum tax even if you have no regular Iowa income tax liability. Illinois Residents See reciprocal agreement. Military Spouses See Tax Responsibilities of Servicemembers and their Spouses. Married Separate Filers: Married taxpayers filing married filing separately on a combined return or married filing separate returns must use the combined income of both spouses in determining eligibility for exemption from tax. If either spouse has a net operating loss that is carried back or forward, then the other spouse cannot use the low income exemption. If the spouse with the net operating loss chooses not to carry the loss back or forward, then the other can claim the low income exemption. A statement must be included with the return saying that the spouse with the net operating loss will not carry it back or forward.

Step 7 Federal Income Tax Refund / Overpayment Received in 2022 Line: 27 Step: 7 Step Subject: Federal Tax Addition and Deduction If you received a refund of federal income tax during 2022: You must report the amount on this line. It must be reported even if you used the standard deduction on the prior year's Iowa return. The federal refund must be included on this line because you benefited from being able to deduct federal taxes on the prior year's Iowa return, which reduced your Iowa taxable income for that year. The amount reported on this line should not exceed the total amount of any federal tax deduction taken on the prior year(s) Iowa return.

39

Include the following: • The refund you received from your 2021 federal tax return. • To find the amount you received, check your records or call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040. This information is not available from the Iowa Department of Revenue. • Any federal refunds received in 2022 for other years that were amended or filed late. • Any portion of the federal refund received in 2022 due to excess FICA payments or the Fuel Tax Credit from federal form 4136 if they were claimed as a federal tax payment on line 31 of the 2021 or 2020 Iowa returns or line 33 of Iowa returns prior to 2020. • Any portion of the federal refund that represents overpayment of Deemed Repatriation of Deferred Foreign Income. Federal estimated tax If you chose to have any part of an overpayment of federal income tax credited to estimated tax payments for 2022, the amount should be claimed as 2022 estimated tax paid on line 31. The total federal overpayment must also be reported on line 27. Do not include the portion of the federal refund attributable to the following: • Recovery Rebate Credit • Earned Income Tax Credit • Refundable portion of the Child Tax Credit (tax year 2021 only) • Additional Child Tax Credit • First-Time Homebuyer Credit • Existing Homebuyer Credit • Refundable Education Credit • Refundable Adoption Tax Credit • Refundable Child and Dependent Care Credit (tax year 2021 only) You moved to Iowa in 2022: You are filing an Iowa return for 2022 for the first time because you moved into Iowa during the year. A refund of federal tax received in 2022 is not reported if the tax was not deducted from Iowa income in a prior year. You were a nonresident: You were a nonresident for the tax year of the refund and were not required to file an Iowa return for that year. You did not deduct federal tax in the refund year: The refund you received was from a year in which you did not take a deduction for the payment of federal tax because your income was less than the minimum amount for paying Iowa tax or your tax for that year was calculated using the alternate tax computation. Married Separate Filers: If the refund received in 2022 was from a jointly-filed federal return, it must be divided between spouses in the ratio of the spouses' net incomes in the year for which the refund was issued. Example: A 2021 federal refund received in 2022 would be prorated using the spouses' net incomes from the 2021 Iowa return. For purposes of reporting on line 27, the refund must be prorated in this manner even if the refund itself was divided between spouses in some other way, either by mutual agreement or other requirement.

40

Example of how to prorate: • Your income is $10,500 • Spouse's income is $15,500 • Total: $26,000 • Federal refund: $1,200 Divide your income by total income: $10,500 divided by $26,000 = 40% The spouse's income is, therefore, 60% of their combined income. In this example, line 27 is $720 (60%) of the federal refund for the spouse, and $480 (40%) of the federal refund for you. Self-Employment / Household Employment / Other Federal Taxes Line: 28 Step: 7 Step Subject: Federal Tax Addition and Deduction Taxpayers can deduct their entire withholding, estimated payment, and additional federal tax paid amounts on line 31.

It is acceptable to report on line 28 either the current year’s self-employment / household employment tax / other federal taxes or the prior year’s, as long as the reporting method is consistent from one year to the next.

41 Married Separate Filers: Federal taxes attributable to a specific spouse are claimed by that spouse. For example, each spouse must claim their own federal self-employment tax. Federal taxes not attributable to any one spouse must be prorated between the spouses based on the net income of the year for which they are paying the federal tax. For example, the household employment taxes are divided between spouses in the ratio of their respective net incomes.

Refundable Credits Refundable credits on the federal 1040 may be included on IA 1040, line 31, to the extent federal income tax was paid by applying the federal refundable credits, including: • Earned Income Tax Credit • Refundable portion of the Child Tax Credit (tax year 2021 only) • Additional Child Tax Credit • Recovery Rebate Credit • First-Time Homebuyer Credit • Existing Homebuyer Credit • Refundable Education Credit • Refundable Adoption Tax Credit • Refundable Child and Dependent Care Credit (tax year 2021 only) Any refundable federal credits that reduce federal income tax liability are allowed as a federal tax deduction — up to the amount of the federal tax paid by the refundable credits — on the Iowa return. In determining the order of applying the refundable federal tax credits, the federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) should be applied first, followed by the Additional Child Tax Credit, and then any other refundable federal credits. Example: The following example illustrates how a refundable federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) on a timely-filed 2020 federal 1040 may affect line 31 of the 2020 Iowa return. FIRST: Federal Tax Liability for Tax Year 2021 Taxpayer's Federal Tax Liability for Tax Year 2021: $2,000 Subtract Taxpayer's Federal Withholding: - 500 Taxpayer's Unpaid Federal Tax Liability for Tax Year 2021: 1,500 SECOND: Apply EITC To Unpaid Federal Income Tax Balance Federal EITC Calculated by Taxpayer for Tax Year 2021: $2,500 Subtract the $1,500 Federal Income Tax the Taxpayer Still Owes for Tax Year 2021: -1,500 Taxpayer Will Receive a Federal Refund of EITC: $1,000 THIRD: Line 31 On Iowa Return For 2022 33. Additional Federal Tax Paid in 2022 for Tax Year 2021 $1,500 The $1,500 federal tax liability paid by EITC for Tax Year 2021 is deductible on the 2022 Iowa return.

Married Separate Filers: The additional federal tax paid must be divided between spouses in the ratio of the spouses' Iowa net incomes for the prior years for which they paid additional federal income tax. B. FICA Payments FICA payments in excess of $9,114.00 for Social Security tax for each person and the fuel tax credit from the 2022 federal return can be deducted as a federal tax payment on line 31. Any excess FICA tax and federal fuel tax credit refunded to you must be added back as a federal tax refund in the year received. If you are self-employed, any self-employment tax you pay cannot cause an excess FICA payment.

Qualified Business Income Deduction Line: 32 Step: 7 Step Subject: Federal Tax Addition and Deduction Enter 75% (.75) of the qualified business income (QBI) deduction claimed on your 2022 federal form 8995, line 15, or your 2022 federal form 8995-A, line 37, whichever is applicable. Married Separate Filers: Divide your QBI deduction based on ownership of the qualifying business or businesses that created the deduction.

Step 8 Balance Line: 36 Step: 8 Step Subject: Taxable Income Enter the amount from line 35 on line 36.

Deduction Line: 37 Step: 8 Step Subject: Taxable Income You may itemize deductions or claim the Iowa standard deduction, whichever is larger. You may itemize deductions on your Iowa return even if you did not itemize deductions on your federal return. You must complete the Iowa Schedule A to itemize deductions on the Iowa return. A number of adjustments and separate Iowa calculations are necessary to determine the correct deduction. The $10,000 federal cap on the itemized deduction for state and local taxes does not apply for Iowa purposes. Taxpayers may still deduct eligible state and local taxes paid, independent of the federal dollar limitation. Standard Deduction For tax year 2022, the standard deduction is: • Filing Status 1: $2,210 • Filing Status 3 or 4: $2,210 for each spouse • Filing Status 2, 5, or 6: $5,450 The Iowa standard deduction can not include the additional charitable contributions deduction as allowed on federal form 1040, line 12b. Itemized Deduction If you itemize, complete the Iowa Schedule A, check the “itemized” box on line 37 and enter your total itemized deduction. Include your Iowa Schedule A with your return. The federal Schedule A cannot be used with the Iowa return. Medical and Dental Expenses Line 1: Enter medical and dental expenses as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A, line 1, less the amount reported as health insurance on the IA 1040, line 18. 100% of the amount paid for health insurance premiums paid for with post-tax dollars is deductible on the IA 1040, line 18. It may be to your advantage to take this deduction on the IA 1040, line 18 instead of the Iowa Schedule A. If health insurance premiums were used as a deduction on the IA 1040, line 18, they cannot be used on the Iowa Schedule A. The IA 1040 departs from the federal 1040 in the treatment of health insurance premiums by allowing taxpayers to elect to deduct qualifying health insurance premiums as an adjustment to Iowa gross income. The Iowa return allows a deduction for qualifying health insurance premiums on the IA 1040, line 18, rather than reporting those same premiums as a medical expense deduction on the Iowa Schedule A for Iowa Itemized Deductions. If the health insurance deduction is taken on the Iowa Schedule A, then the federal tax guidance should be followed when addressing the complications due to the impact of the federal excess advance premium tax credit repayment and the net premium tax credit. However, if the deduction is taken on the IA 1040, line 18, then the IA 1040, rather than the Iowa Schedule A, must reflect the impact of the federal excess advance premium tax credit repayment and the net premium tax credit. The Iowa expanded instructions for the IA 1040, lines 14 and 18 set forth the Department’s guidance for the correct reporting of these amounts.

47

Line 2: Multiply federal adjusted gross income by 7.5% (.075). Your federal adjusted gross income is the amount from federal form 1040, line 11, as modified by any Iowa net income nonconformity adjustments from the IA 1040, line 14 including any depreciation/section 179 adjustments, if any. Enter the result, or if less than zero, enter zero. Line 3: Subtract line 2 from line 1. Enter the result, or if less than zero, enter zero. Taxes You Paid The $10,000 ($5,000 if married filing separately) federal cap on the itemized deduction for state and local taxes calculated on federal form 1040, Schedule A, line 5e, does not apply for Iowa purposes. Taxpayers may deduct all eligible state and local taxes paid, independent of the federal dollar limitation. Line 4: Enter other state and local income taxes (not including Iowa state income taxes) on line 4a, OR general sales taxes on line 4b, as allowed on the federal form 1040, Schedule A, line 5a. Iowa state income tax is not deductible on the Iowa return. The School District Surtax and the Emergency Medical Services Surtax are deductible on the Iowa return. Taxes withheld or paid to other states or local taxing authorities are included. Note: If you received a refund in 2022 of previously deducted state and local taxes, you must add the refund back as other income, IA 1040 line 14. You cannot deduct Social Security, Medicare, federal unemployment (FUTA), or railroad retirement (RRTA) taxes. You cannot deduct taxes you paid for someone else. General sales taxes paid are available as an itemized deduction for 2022 on the Iowa Schedule A, only if you itemized at the federal level and elected to deduct general sales taxes on your federal return. Line 5: Enter real estate taxes as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A, line 5b. Line 6: Enter personal property taxes as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A, line 5c Vehicle Registration Fee Deduction and Worksheet If you itemize deductions, a portion of the automobile or multipurpose vehicle annual registration fee you paid in 2022 may be deducted as personal property tax on your Iowa Schedule A, line 6, and federal form 1040, Schedule A, line 5c. This deduction includes annual registration fees paid based on the value of qualifying automobiles and multipurpose vehicles. Multipurpose vehicles are defined as motor vehicles designed to carry not more than 10 people, and constructed either on a truck chassis or with special features for occasional off-road operation [Iowa Code section 321.1(44)]. Annual registration fees on the following vehicles are not deductible: pickups (model year 2009 or older), motor trucks, work vans, ambulances, hearses, non-passenger-carrying vans, campers, motorcycles, trailers, or motor bikes. This deduction applies only to the annual vehicle registration fee. It does not apply to the 5% one-time registration fee/fee for new registration that is imposed on the initial registration of a vehicle. That 5% fee is only deductible on the IA 1040, Schedule A, line 4b if the taxpayer claimed an itemized deduction for general sales taxes paid on the federal form 1040, Schedule A, line 5a.

48

Newer Vehicles: Use the following worksheet to calculate the deductible amount of annual registration fees paid in 2022 for qualifying automobiles and multipurpose vehicles (model year 2011 or newer). For tax years 2009 and earlier, pickup truck registration fees could not be taken as an itemized deduction, because the fees were structured as a flat fee and were not based on value. However, beginning with the 2009 tax year, there was a change in the registration fee structure for pickups. More specifically, only model year 2010 and newer trucks that weigh in at 10,000 pounds or less when empty are registered based on weight, list price, and model year. All other trucks are still subject to a registration fee based on weight. Consequently, certain 2011 model year and newer trucks may use the Vehicle Registration Deduction Worksheet. 1. Enter the actual annual registration fee paid. 1. 2. Take the weight of your automobile and divide it by 250. The weight is found on your automobile registration certificate. 2. 3. Subtract line 2 from line 1. This is the deductible amount for line 37. 3. Example • Malia purchased an automobile from Jennifer. • The actual fee Malia paid to register the automobile at the courthouse was $150. • The weight of the automobile is 3,000 pounds. The deductible amount is calculated as follows: 1. Enter the actual annual registration fee paid. 1. 150 2. Take the weight of your automobile and divide it by 250. The weight is found on your automobile registration certificate. 2. 12 3. Subtract line 2 from line 1. This is the deductible amount for line 37. 3. 138 Older Vehicles: For qualifying automobiles and multipurpose vehicles (model year 2010 or older) the deductible amount is 60% of the annual registration fees paid in 2022. This includes qualifying model year 2010 trucks. Line 7: Enter other taxes as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A. Other taxes you paid are taxes not included on lines 5 or 6. List the tax paid and the total amount. Line 8: Add lines 4 to 7. Enter the total here. Interest You Paid Lines 9a and 9b: Enter the home mortgage interest and points as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A with the following adjustments: Taxpayers with the mortgage interest credit can claim a deduction on the Iowa Schedule A, line 9 for all qualifying mortgage interest paid in the tax year and not just the mortgage interest that was deducted on the federal form 1040, Schedule A. Line 10: Enter points not reported on federal form 1098 as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A.

49

Line 11: RESERVED FOR FUTURE USE Line 12: Enter investment interest as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A. Include federal form 4952 if required. Line 13: Add lines 9a to 12. Enter the total here. Gifts to Charity The following are exceptions to federal form 1040, Schedule A treatment of charitable contributions: • Injured Veterans Grant Program contributions do not qualify as itemized deductions, but can be taken on the IA 1040, line 24 • Certain donations to a non-profit entity for use in the entity’s College Savings Iowa Account (529 Plan) may not qualify as an itemized deduction. Do not include as an itemized deduction any amount that you contributed to a non-profit entity to be deposited into the entity’s College Savings Iowa Account (529 Plan) if you designated that any part of your contribution was to be used for the direct benefit of your dependent or any other specific person. • If a taxpayer’s federal itemized deduction for a charitable contribution to a state or local government is reduced because such contribution is made in return for a state or local tax credit, the same reduction applies for Iowa tax purposes, but note the following special rules related to Iowa tax credits: o School Tuition Organization Tax Credit Contributions, Charitable Conservation Contribution Tax Credit Contributions, Endow Iowa Tax Credit Contributions, Hoover Presidential Library Tax Credit, and Farm to Food Donation Tax Credit Contributions: do not include as an Iowa itemized deduction any contributions for which a credit is claimed on the IA 1040, line 52. Line 14: Enter the contributions by cash or check as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A, with the adjustments noted above. Line 15: Enter contributions other than by cash or check as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A, with the adjustments noted above. Include federal form 8283 if more than $500. Line 16: Enter contributions carryforward from prior year as allowed on federal form 1040, Schedule A, with the adjustments noted above. Contributions carried forward from prior year may be deducted if your contributions were capped in a prior year. Iowa follows the federal guidelines for carryforwards, but certain adjustments to your contribution carryforward may be required as described below. Documentation of the carryforward amount may be requested by the Department. The federal adjusted gross income used to determine contribution limitations for Iowa tax purposes is the amount from federal form 1040, line 11, as modified by any Iowa net income nonconformity adjustments from the IA 1040, line 14 including any depreciation/section 179 adjustments, if any. Iowa did not conform to several federal charitable contribution provisions in 2018 and 2019. As a result of this 2018 and 2019 nonconformity, your charitable contribution carryforward amount from 2018 or 2019 may be different for federal and Iowa purposes in 2022. • Charitable Contribution Percentage Limitation: For tax year 2018 only, Iowa did not conform with the federal increase in the charitable deduction limitation for cash contributions to certain public charities from 50% to 60% of the taxpayer’s federal adjusted gross income. If an allowable deduction was limited and added back for Iowa purposes in 2018 because of Iowa’s lower contribution limitation, you may

50

recalculate your Iowa contribution carryforward amount under IRC § 170(b)(1)(G) for tax year 2019- 2023 to include the amount of those contributions added back on your 2018 IA 1040 Schedule A. No Iowa charitable deduction shall be allowed for this Iowa carryforward amount for tax year 2024 or later. • College Seating Rights Contributions: For tax year 2018 only, Iowa did not conform with the federal repeal of the charitable deduction for 80% of a donation made to a college in return for the right to purchase college athletic tickets. If you made such a charitable contribution in 2018 and it was not otherwise limited by your contribution percentage limitation under IRC § 170(d), it was deducted on your 2018 IA 1040 Schedule A. However, if the allowable deduction was instead limited and not deductible for Iowa tax purposes in 2018, you may recalculate your Iowa contribution carryforward amount under IRC § 170(d) for tax years 2019-2023 to include the amount of that 2018 contribution otherwise allowable for Iowa tax purposes. No Iowa charitable deduction shall be allowed for this carryforward amount for tax year 2024 or later. • California Wildfire Relief Efforts Contributions: For tax year 2018 only, Iowa did not conform with the temporary suspension under § 20104 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 of charitable contribution limitations for certain contributions made for California wildfire relief efforts. To the extent you made one of these qualifying contributions but it caused you to exceed your contribution percentage limitation under IRC § 170(b) in tax year 2018, the amount of the excess was added back on your 2018 IA 1040 Schedule A. If you included such an add back in tax year 2018, you may recalculate your Iowa contribution carryforward amount under IRC § 170(d) for tax years 2019-2023 to include the amount added back on your 2018 IA 1040 Schedule A. No Iowa charitable deduction shall be allowed for this Iowa carryforward amount for tax year 2024 or later. • Qualified Disaster Relief Contributions: For tax years 2018 and 2019, Iowa did not conform with the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2019 which increased the charitable deduction limitation to 100% of your adjusted gross income for qualified contributions for relief efforts in a qualified disaster area. If an allowable deduction was limited and added back for Iowa purposes in 2018 or 2019 because of Iowa’s lower contribution limitation, you may recalculate your Iowa contribution 5 year carryforward amount under IRC § 170(b)(1)(G) to include the amount of those contributions added back on your 2018 and 2019 IA 1040 Schedule A. No Iowa charitable deduction shall be allowed for this Iowa carryforward amount for tax year 2025 or later. Line 17: Add lines 14 to 16. Enter the total here. Casualty/Theft Loss Line 18: Enter casualty or theft loss(es) as reported on your federal return. Include your federal form 4684. Other Expenses Line 19: Enter other itemized deductions as allowed on federal Schedule A, line 16. List the type and amount on line 19. Do not include any amount of federal standard deduction included on federal Schedule A, line 16, because you have a net qualified disaster loss on federal form 4684, line 15. For tax years 2019 and later, Iowa is conformed to the federal repeal of miscellaneous itemized deductions and unreimbursed employee expenses for most taxpayers. Do not include any deductions on line 19 that were

51

not allowable on your federal Schedule A, line 16. See 2021 IRS Publication 529 for more information about allowable deductions. Gambling losses: Gambling losses are deductible only to the extent of gambling winnings reported on IA 1040, line 13. The gambling loss amount entered on this line shall only include losses from wagering transactions, and does not extend to business expenses incurred in the trade or business of gambling. Other Iowa Deductions Line 20: Enter the total of all other deductions on the Iowa Schedule A, line 20 as described below. Only include amounts described in paragraphs a, b, or c below. a.

Qualifying Items: • Qualifying items are those that are not reimbursed. Items may include food, clothing, medical expenses not otherwise deductible, and transportation for medical reasons. See IRS guidelines for medical mileage rate. • An itemized schedule of expenses must be included with the return. Non-Qualifying Items: • Expenses not directly attributable to the care of the relative, such as rent, mortgage payments, interest, utilities, house insurance, and taxes cannot be included. Married Separate Filers: The total deduction claimed by both spouses for each relative with a disability may not exceed $5,000. b. Adoption Expenses You may be eligible to deduct a portion of the adoption expenses you paid in 2022 if you incurred adoption expenses during the tax year, even if the child is not placed in Iowa. Expenses include medical costs relating to the child's birth, any necessary fees, and all other costs connected with the adoption procedure. Include a separate schedule listing the adoption expenses. This deduction is taken in the year that the expenses are paid even if the child is not placed in your home during that year or if the adoption does not occur. There is also an Adoption Tax Credit for certain unreimbursed adoption expenses that can be calculated on the IA 177 and taken on the IA 1040, line 62 for a child placed in Iowa. Qualifying adoption expenses exceeding 3% of total Iowa net income, less any Adoption Tax Credit claimed, are eligible for deduction. Subtract 3% of your total Iowa net income (and your spouse’s, if married) entered on line 26 from the total of qualifying adoption

52

expenses, less any Adoption Tax Credit claimed on IA 1040, line 62. Enter the result on IA 1040 Schedule A, line 27. Example: Taxpayer has Iowa net income of $100,000 and adoption expenses of $10,000. The taxpayer is eligible for an Adoption Tax Credit on line 62 of $5,000. • $100,000 (net income) x 3% (.03) = $3,000 (expenses not eligible for deduction) • $10,000 (total adoption expenses) - $5,000 (credit amount) = $5,000 (expenses remaining for possible deduction) • $5,000 (expenses remaining for possible deduction) - $3,000 (expenses not eligible for deduction) = $2,000 (deduction allowed on line 27 of IA Schedule A) c. Mileage Deduction Charitable Purposes Iowa allows an additional deduction for automobile mileage driven for charitable organizations. Calculate the deduction as follows: 1. Number of miles: a. from January 1 through June 30 x $0.39 b. from July 1 through December 31 x $0.50 2. Total of lines 1a and 1b 3. Subtract charitable mileage deduction already claimed on the Iowa Schedule A, line 26 4. Equals additional mileage deduction for charitable purposes This information is based on Iowa Code sections 422.9(2)(d) and 8A.363. Proration of Deductions Between Spouses Complete lines 22 to 26 only if you are using filing status 3 or 4. Married Separate Filers: If one spouse uses the itemized deduction, then both spouses must use the itemized deduction, even if separate Iowa returns are filed. Itemized deductions must be divided between spouses in the ratio of their respective net incomes. Line 22: Enter net income of both spouses from IA 1040, line 26. 22a. Your net income from IA 1040, line 26 22b. Spouse’s net income from IA 1040, line 26 Line 23: Add 22a and 22b. Enter the total here. Line 24: Divide the amount on line 22a by the amount on line 23. Enter the result here to the nearest tenth of a percent. Line 25: Multiply line 21 by the percentage on line 24. Enter the result here and on IA 1040, line 37, column A. Line 26: Subtract line 25 from line 21. Enter the result here and on IA 1040, line 37, column B. If you are using filing status 4, enter this amount on line 37, column A or your spouse’s return.

Tax or Alternate Tax Line: 39 Step: 9 Step Subject: Tax, Credits & Checkoff Contributions Alternate Tax Calculation You may owe less tax by completing the worksheet below to compute your tax liability. All filing statuses except filing status 1, Single, may qualify for the Iowa alternate tax calculation. Single taxpayers may be eligible for the Iowa income tax reduction; see Iowa Income Tax Reduction Worksheet. Carryforward of net operating loss claimed on the IA 1040 must be added back to net income line 26. Special instructions for filing status 3, Married Filing Separately on a Combined Return, and filing status 4, Married Filing Separate Returns: • Use the combined net incomes of both spouses. • Prorate the alternate tax between spouses in the ratio of the net income of each spouse to the combined net income of both spouses using lines 7-11. • If you are married filing separately and one spouse has a net operating loss that will be carried back or forward, then you cannot use the alternate tax computation. If the spouse with the net operating loss elects not to carry the net operating loss back or forward, then you can use the alternate tax computation. A statement must be included with the return saying that the spouse with the net operating loss will not carry it back or forward. • If you are filing status 4 and do not provide the other spouse’s income on the IA 1040, Step 2 , you will not be allowed the alternate tax calculation.

Step 9 Iowa Lump-Sum Tax Line: 40 Step: 9 Step Subject: Tax, Credits & Checkoff Contributions A lump-sum distribution occurs when, in one tax year, you receive the total balance from the pension or profit-sharing plan of an employer due to termination of employment, termination of the plan, or death of the employee. Iowa lump-sum tax applies only if federal form 4972 was used to compute the federal tax on any portion of the lump-sum distribution. If there is no federal lump-sum tax, then there is no Iowa lump-sum tax.

55

Iowa Residents: Enter 25% of the federal tax from federal form 4972 on the IA 1040, line 40. Include federal form 4972. Part-Year Residents: If a lump-sum distribution reported on federal form 4972 was received while an Iowa resident, 25% of the federal tax from form 4972 must be entered on line 40. Part-year residents who receive a lump-sum distribution while not an Iowa resident are not subject to Iowa lump-sum tax on that distribution. A copy of the federal form 4972 must be included. Nonresidents: Nonresidents receiving lump-sum distributions are not subject to Iowa lump-sum tax. Married Separate Filers (including status 4): Lump-sum tax is reported by the spouse who received the distribution.

However, you may be subject to Iowa alternative minimum tax even if you have no liability for federal alternative minimum tax. All taxpayers with Iowa alternative minimum tax are to include a copy of the IA 6251 with their IA 1040. If you had tax preference items and adjustments in 2022, see form IA 6251 for further information. Nonresidents and Part-Year Residents: If you have Iowa-source tax preferences or adjustments, you may be subject to Iowa alternative minimum tax. See form IA 6251.

Dependents attending a school must have attended a school in Iowa that is accredited under Iowa Code section 256.11, not operated for a profit, and adheres to the provisions of the U.S. Civil Rights Act of 1964. Dependents not attending a school must have received private instruction as defined in Iowa Code sections 299A.1(2)(b), 299A.2, or 299A.3. Tuition expenses paid with 529 account distributions may qualify for the tuition and textbook credit.

If the volunteer does not serve the entire year, the $250 credit will be prorated based on the number of months that the volunteer served. If the volunteer served for a portion of a month, that will be considered as an entire month. The table below provides the qualifying amount of tax credit by months of service for the year. Number of Months of Service Amount of Tax Credit Number of Months of Service Amount of Tax Credit 1 $21 7 $146 2 $42 8 $167 3 $63 9 $188 4 $83 10 $208 5 $104 11 $229 6 $125 12 $250 If an individual serves in more than one position at the same time as a volunteer firefighter, volunteer EMS personnel, and/or reserve peace officer, the credit can only be claimed for one volunteer position. Written Statement Requirements Taxpayers claiming the tax credit are required to have a written statement from the fire chief, the chief of police, sheriff, commissioner of public safety, or other appropriate supervisor verifying that the individual was a volunteer for the number of months that are being claimed.

Total Credits Line: 46 Step: 9 Step Subject: Tax, Credits & Checkoff Contributions Add lines 43, 44 and 45. Balance Line: 47 Step: 9 Step Subject: Tax, Credits & Checkoff Contributions Subtract the amount on line 46 from the amount on line 42. If less than zero, enter zero. Why Use the Tax Reduction Worksheet Taxpayers using filing status 1, Single, and not claimed as a dependent on another person's Iowa return may owe less tax by using this worksheet. Taxpayers using filing status 1 are not eligible to use the alternate tax computation. However, a single taxpayer who is not claimed as a dependent on another person’s Iowa return cannot have a tax amount on the IA 1040, line 47 that would reduce the combination of net income from the IA 1040, line 26 plus any pension exclusion from line 21, any reportable Social Security benefits on line 11 of the Social Security Worksheet, and any lump-sum distribution income subject to tax on federal form 4972 to less than $9,000 ($24,000 if you are 65 or older as of 12/31/22). If subtracting line 47 from the total of lines 21, 26, reportable Social Security benefits, and any lump-sum distribution income subject to tax on federal form 4972 results in a difference of less than $9,000 ($24,000 if you are 65 or older as of 12/31/22), the entry on line 47 must be reduced as calculated on the worksheet below. The carryover of a net operating loss claimed on the IA 1040 must be added back to net income, line 26. 1. Enter: (a) Net income from IA 1040, line 26: ________ (b) Pension exclusion from IA 1040, line 21: _______ (c) Reportable Social Security benefits (IA 1040, Step 4):_______ (d) Lump Sum Tax distributions of taxable income reported on federal form 4972 line 8:______ Total.

Write "tax reduction" to the left of line 47 5. 50 Credit for Nonresident or Part-Year Resident Line: 48 Step: 9 Step Subject: Tax, Credits & Checkoff Contributions Nonresidents or Part-Year Residents: A nonresident or part-year resident of Iowa must complete the IA 1040, lines 1 through 47 prior to completing the IA 126. The IA 1040 lines which must be completed report the taxpayer’s: • Total income, including income earned outside Iowa, • Adjustments to income, • Federal tax deduction, • Standard or itemized deductions on the same basis as if the taxpayer were a resident of Iowa The nonresident or part-year resident then completes a Schedule IA 126. On the IA 126, only Iowa income is reported and a percentage of Iowa income to total income is determined. The taxpayer receives a credit against the initial tax liability based on the percentage of income from outside Iowa. Therefore, the result of this credit is that only Iowa-source income is taxed. NOTE: The Iowa income percentage is rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth of a percent in accordance with Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—304.5. The final credit from this form is used as a credit to reduce total tax on your IA 1040. Although non-Iowa income is used to calculate the initial tax liability at the appropriate tax rate, the non-Iowa income itself is not subject to tax. By using this method, Iowa taxes the Iowa-source income of nonresidents and part-year residents at the same rate it taxes Iowa residents. Iowa, like many states and the federal government, uses a graduated tax rate system based on level of income A nonresident of Iowa with all-source income of $250,000 and $10,000 of Iowa income, will use the same tax rate as an Iowa resident with $250,000 of income to calculate their initial tax liability, rather than using the same tax rate as an Iowa resident with $10,000 of total income. Enter the amount of your nonresident or part-year resident tax credit from Schedule IA 126, line 33. A copy of Schedule IA 126 and a copy of your federal return must be included.

62

You may owe less tax by using filing status 3 or 4. General instructions for completing the IA 126: Part-Year Iowa Residents: Iowa net income includes all income received while living in Iowa plus any Iowa-source income received while a nonresident. Part-Year Resident Example: A lived and worked in Iowa the first six months of the tax year. In addition to A’s wages, A received interest income from an Iowa bank. A then permanently moved to Missouri, where A was employed for the rest of the year. A continued to receive interest income from the Iowa bank. A will report all of her income from both states on the IA 1040 as all-source income. On the IA 126, A will report only the wages and interest income earned while an Iowa resident as Iowa-source income. The interest income earned the last half of the year is not considered Iowa-source income since A was no longer an Iowa resident. Nonresidents: Iowa net income will include all income from Iowa sources. Complete IA 126, lines 1 through 26 using only income from Iowa sources. Nonresident Example 1: X is a resident of Nebraska and works in Iowa. X’s income includes wages earned in Iowa and interest income from a Nebraska bank. X will report the wages and interest on the IA 1040 as all- source income. X will list his wages only on the IA 126 as his Iowa-source income. Iowa has a reciprocal agreement with Illinois, which means that wages and salaries are taxed by the individual’s state of residence. All income received from gambling in Iowa is taxable to Iowa regardless of the person’s state of residence. Nonresident Example 2: Y is a resident of Illinois. Y earned $25,000 in wages from Iowa and won $5,000 at an Iowa casino. Y will report income from all sources on the IA 1040. Only the gambling winnings will be reported on the IA 126 as Y’s Iowa-source income. Full-Year Residents (married filers check this box if one spouse is a full-year Iowa resident) For married taxpayers, if one spouse is a full year Iowa resident, the full year Iowa resident must include all of that spouse’s income from the IA 1040, lines 1-26. Married Separate Filers: Divide your Iowa income between spouses using the instructions given for the corresponding line on the IA 1040 for married separate filers. 1. Wages, Salaries, Tips, Etc. Part-year residents: Include all W-2 income earned or received while an Iowa resident, even if it was earned in another state, and any income for services performed in Iowa while a nonresident of the state. If it was earned in another state, you may also need to fill out the IA 130 if you pay tax to the other state or local jurisdiction in another state. You will need to check with that state for their filing requirements.

63

Nonresidents: Report only Iowa-source income. If the portion of employee compensation earned in Iowa by a nonresident is not reported separately, allocate the compensation based upon the number of days worked in Iowa to total work days. Severance pay and vacation pay from Iowa employment are Iowa-source income even if the pay was received after leaving Iowa. Note to nonresident military taxpayer: As a result of federal legislation, the nonresident military taxpayer does not include military pay on the IA 126, line 1 (nor is it reported on the IA 1040). In general, this applies to active duty military and does not include the National Guard or reserve personnel. Military spouses, please Iowa Tax Responsibilities of Servicemembers and their Spouses. 2. Taxable Interest Income Part-year residents: Report all interest shown on the IA 1040 that accrued while an Iowa resident and any interest received while a nonresident which was derived from a trade, business, or profession carried on within Iowa. Interest earned from an Iowa bank account is only considered Iowa-source income while the taxpayer is an Iowa resident. Nonresidents: Report only the interest derived from an Iowa trade, business, or profession. 3. Dividend Income Part-year residents: Report all dividends received while an Iowa resident and any dividends derived from an Iowa trade, business, or profession while a nonresident. Nonresidents: Report the dividends derived from an Iowa trade, business, or profession. 4. Alimony Received Part-year residents: Report all alimony or separate maintenance payments received while an Iowa resident. Nonresidents: Do not enter anything on this line. 5. Business Income or Loss Part-year residents: From the total business income or loss shown on the IA 1040, line 5, report the amount earned while an Iowa resident, and report any portion of the total business income or loss earned while a nonresident using the instructions for nonresidents given below. Nonresidents: Report the portion of business income or loss attributable to a trade, business, or profession carried on within Iowa. Include a supporting schedule showing Iowa gross receipts divided by total gross receipts for each business; multiply this ratio times the total net income from the corresponding business. A sale of goods is considered an Iowa sale if goods are delivered or shipped to a point within the state regardless of Freight on

64

Board (F.O.B.) point. A sale of a service is considered an Iowa sale if the recipient of the service receives benefit of the service in Iowa. 6. Capital Gain or (Loss) Part-year residents: Include 100% of the capital gain or loss from assets sold while an Iowa resident. In addition, capital gain or loss from assets sold while a nonresident of Iowa should be reported on the basis of the instructions for nonresidents that follow. Nonresidents: Include in Iowa income 100% of capital gain or loss from the following: a. Sales of real or tangible personal property if the property was located in Iowa at the time of the sale; or b. Sales of intangible personal property if the taxpayer's commercial domicile is in Iowa. Note: You may have a gain here even if you have a net loss on the IA 1040. 7. Other Gains or (Losses) Part-year residents: Report 100% of gains or losses from assets sold or exchanged while an Iowa resident and any gains or losses from federal form 4797 while a nonresident if the property was located in Iowa at the time of sale or exchange. Nonresidents: Report any gains or losses from federal form 4797 if the property was located in Iowa. Note: You may have a gain here even if you have a net loss on the IA 1040. 8. Taxable IRA Distributions Part-year residents: Report any taxable IRA distributions received while an Iowa resident. Nonresidents: Do not enter anything on this line. 9. Taxable Pensions and Annuities Pension income is taxable to the state you live in when you receive it. Part-year residents: Report any pension and annuity income reported on the IA 1040, line 9 which was received while an Iowa resident. Do not include military retirement pay, since that is not reported on the IA 1040, line 9. Nonresidents: Do not enter anything on this line. Retirement income received by a nonresident is not taxable to Iowa even when it is from an Iowa source. 10. Rents, Royalties, Partnerships, Estates, Trusts, Etc. Part-year residents: Report all income shown on federal Schedule E that was earned or received while an Iowa resident. Also report all rents and royalties from Iowa sources and all Iowa partnership or S corporation income earned or received while a nonresident.

65

Nonresidents: Report all rents and royalties from Iowa sources and all Iowa partnership or S corporation income. See instructions for allocation of business income on line 5 of this section. 11.

Who May Use the IA 130? Only Iowa residents or part-year residents with an income tax liability outside of Iowa, local jurisdiction out- side of Iowa, or foreign country may reduce their Iowa tax liability by claiming an Iowa Out-of-State Tax Credit. Part-year residents of Iowa may claim this credit only if any income earned while an Iowa resident was also taxed by another state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country. Only income included on the IA 126, and taxed by another state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country, may qualify for this credit. Nonresidents of Iowa may NOT claim this credit. Caution: Shareholders of S corporations who have income from the corporation that was apportioned outside Iowa through a claim to the IA 134 S Corporation Apportionment Tax Credit may NOT claim an out-of-state credit on this S corporation income. Filing Requirements Complete a separate IA 130 for each state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country. Individuals using filing status 3 (married filing separately on a combined return) or status 4 (married filing separate returns) must complete a separate IA 130 for the spouse for each state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country. Separate IA 130s are not required for foreign taxes paid by mutual funds or other regulated investment companies. The credit or portion of the credit must not exceed the amount of the Iowa tax imposed on the same income that was taxed by the other state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country.

69

When filing your IA 1040, include all IA 130 schedules, the income tax return you filed with the other state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country, the supplemental schedule that was provided by your pass-through entity if you are claiming income taxes paid by your pass-through entity, and federal form 1116, Foreign Tax Credit, if you are claiming income taxes paid to a foreign country and it is required with your federal return. Alternative Minimum Tax or Lump-Sum Distribution Tax Do not include any alternative minimum tax or special lump-sum distribution tax when computing this credit for regular income tax paid. You must compute this credit separately for regular income tax, alternative minimum tax, and special lump-sum distribution tax. For more information, see the special instructions for minimum tax or lump-sum distribution tax at the end of these instructions. Line Instructions for IA 130 Line 1: Enter the income you earned while an Iowa resident that was taxed by Iowa and taxed by the other state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country. Do not include income that was not taxed by Iowa. Do not include amounts taxed by another state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country if that tax is not measured by income. Do not include fees, penalty, and interest paid in connection with the income tax. If you were subject to income tax in the other jurisdiction, this income will be included on the income tax return you filed with that jurisdiction. Include a copy of that other income tax return with your IA 1040. If your distributive share of income from a pass-through entity was taxed by another state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country but reported on a composite return, or if a pass-through entity was subject to an entity-level income tax outside of Iowa, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country on your distributive share of income also taxed by Iowa, your pro-rata share of this income will be identified on a schedule provided to you by your pass-through entity. If you do not receive such a schedule from your pass- through entity, you are not eligible to claim the Iowa Out-of-State Tax Credit. Include a copy of that schedule with your IA 1040. If your mutual fund or other regulated investment company paid foreign income tax and passed the amount through to you, your share of this income will be identified on the Form 1099-DIV or similar statement provided to you. If you do not receive such a form or statement, you are not eligible to claim the Iowa Out-of- State Tax Credit. If your income was taxed in other jurisdictions at more than one level (e.g., at the pass-through entity level and at the individual level) only include that income once on this line. Caution: Do not include on this line any income from an S corporation, or reported to you by an S corporation, if you are claiming an IA 134 S Corporation Apportionment Tax Credit for that S corporation. Line 2: If you are a full-year resident, enter your gross income from your IA 1040, line 15, for the same tax year you are claiming this credit. If you are a part-year resident, enter your gross income from your IA 126, line 15, for the same tax year you are claiming this credit. Line 3: Round your percentage on line 3 to the nearest ten-thousandth of a percent, i.e. four digits to the right of the decimal place, as a percentage (e.g. 12.3456%). If the fifth digit to the right of the decimal place is 1-4, round down (e.g. 12.34564% becomes 12.3456%). If the fifth digit to the right of the decimal place is 5-9, round up (e.g. 12.34565% becomes 12.3457%). Do not exceed 100%.

70

Line 4: Enter your Iowa regular income tax, equal to the amount on your IA 1040, line 49, less your Iowa lump- sum tax on your IA 1040, line 40, and less your Iowa alternative minimum tax on your IA 1040, line 41. If zero or less, enter zero. Line 6: Enter the income tax actually shown due and paid by you as calculated from the tax formula/tables on the other state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country's tax return you filed, less any nonrefundable credits, and less any refundable credit provided to you for entity-level taxes paid by a pass- through entity (see example for line 7 below). This is not the amount withheld from your wages or paid as estimated income tax payments, and does not include taxes deemed to be paid to another jurisdiction for purposes of computing the federal foreign tax credit on your federal form 1116. Caution: Do not include on this line any income tax paid on any income from an S corporation if you are claiming an IA 134 S Corporation Apportionment Tax Credit for that S corporation. Line 7: If your distributive share of income from a pass-through entity was taxed by another state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country but reported on a composite return, or if a pass-through entity was subject to an entity-level income tax outside of Iowa, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country on your distributive share of income also taxed by Iowa, your pro-rata share of this income tax will be identified on a schedule provided to you by your pass-through entity. Enter your reported pro-rata share of the income tax on this line. This will be your pro-rata share of the income tax actually shown due and paid by the pass-through entity as calculated from the tax formula/tables on the other state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country’s tax return filed by the pass-through entity, less any nonrefundable credits. This is not the amount withheld or paid as estimated income tax payments. However, if you receive a refundable tax credit in the other state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country for all or part of the entity-level income tax paid by a pass-through entity, the amount of the refund attributable to that refundable credit reduces the income tax paid by the pass-through entity. Example: Individual B, a 50% owner of Partnership P doing business in State Z, receives a statement from Partnership P showing that P paid $500 of entity-level income tax to State Z, and B’s pro-rata share of that income tax is $250. B also received a $250 refundable tax credit from State Z for B’s share of the entity-level income tax paid by partnership P. B files an income tax return in State Z to report their pro-rata share of income from Partnership P and calculates tentative income tax of $200. B applies their $250 refundable tax credit against that tentative income tax, resulting in an income tax liability of $0 and a refund of $50. Therefore, B enters $0 on line 6 of the IA 130, and must also reduce her pro-rata share of the entity-level income tax paid by partnership P by $50 as reported on line 7. B enters $200 ($250 - $50) on line 7. If you do not receive a schedule from your pass-through entity reporting your pro-rata share of composite return or entity-level income taxes paid to the other state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country, you are not eligible to claim the Iowa Out-of-State Tax Credit. Include a copy of that schedule with your IA 1040. If your mutual fund or other regulated investment company paid foreign income tax and passed the amount through to you, your share of this income will be identified on the Form 1099-DIV or similar statement provided to you. If you do not receive such a form or statement, you are not eligible to claim the Iowa Out-of-State Tax Credit. Caution: Do not include on this line any income tax paid by an S corporation, or reported to you by an S corporation, if you are claiming an IA 134 S Corporation Apportionment Tax Credit for that S corporation.

71

Line 10: Enter the total income taxed by the other state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country. Do not include amounts taxed by another state, local jurisdiction outside of Iowa, or foreign country if that tax is not measured by income. Do not include fees, penalty, and interest paid in connection with the income tax. Line 11: Round your percentage on line 11 to the nearest ten-thousandth of a percent, i.e. four digits to the right of the decimal place, as a percentage (e.g. 12.3456%). If the fifth digit to the right of the decimal place is 1-4, round down (e.g. 10.41864% becomes 10.4186%). If the fifth digit to the right of the decimal place is 5-9, round up (e.g. 10.43545% becomes 10.4355%). Do not exceed 100%. Special Instructions for Minimum Tax or Lump-Sum Distribution Tax Compute Separately: If you were assessed an alternative minimum tax or a special tax on a lump-sum distribution by another state or local jurisdiction outside of Iowa on items similarly taxed on your Iowa return, you must separately compute an out-of-state credit for each of these items. Do not include alternative minimum tax or a special lump-sum tax when computing the regular tax credit. Please write “Alternative Minimum Tax” or “Lump-sum Tax” next to the amount on line 6 of the IA 130. Minimum Tax: Report the amount of preference items taxed by the other state or local jurisdiction outside of Iowa on line 1. However, a preference item may be included in line 1 only if it is also a preference item for Iowa purposes. Enter on line 2 the amount of Iowa preference items. Report on line 4 the alternative minimum tax figure from IA 1040, line 41. On line 6 or 7, as appropriate, report only the portion of the alternative minimum tax liability from the other state or local jurisdiction outside of Iowa which applies to preference items which were also taxed by Iowa. Lump-sum Distribution: Report on line 1 the amount of distribution subject to special lump-sum tax by the other state. Do not include a distribution taxed by the other state or local jurisdiction outside of Iowa as part of gross income. Enter on line 2 the total lump-sum distribution taxed by Iowa. Report on line 4 the Iowa Lump-sum Distribution Tax from IA 1040, line 40. Example 1: Full-Year Iowa Residents Only Taxpayer X lived in Iowa all year but worked in both Iowa and Nebraska. X earned $10,000 in Iowa. X also earned $15,000 in Nebraska that was taxed by Nebraska. Taxpayer X would report $25,000 on line 15 of the IA 1040 as gross income. IA 1040, line 49 would be $903.

Agricultural Assets Transfer Tax Credit An Agricultural Assets Transfer Tax Credit is available for established farmers who lease agricultural assets to beginning farmers to claim against individual and corporation income tax. The agricultural asset transfer tax credit application must have been submitted to the Iowa Agricultural Development Division before May 21, 2019. The tax credit is only allowed for agricultural assets that are subject to a lease or rental agreement for a term of at least two years, but not more than five years. The taxpayer must meet certain qualifications as established by rules adopted by the Iowa Finance Authority. The beginning farmer must meet the requirements listed in Iowa Code section 16.80 (2019). The tax credit equals 5% of the amount paid to the taxpayer under a cash rent agreement or 15% of the crop share payments under an agreement in which the payment is exclusively made from the sale of crops or animals. A tax credit certificate is issued by the Iowa Agricultural Development Division of the Iowa Finance Authority that includes the tax credit certificate number which must be reported on the IA 148 Tax Credits Schedule when the tax credit is claimed using tax credit code 17. Any tax credit in excess of tax liability, if awarded in tax year 2008 or later can be carried forward and applied against tax liability for the following ten years or until depleted, whichever is earlier. A tax credit is not transferable to any other person other than the taxpayer's estate or trust upon the taxpayer's death. If the tax credit is issued to a partnership, limited liability company, S corporation, estate, or trust, the tax credit shall be claimed by the individual based on the pro rata share of the income of the entity. The lease or rental agreement may be terminated by either the taxpayer or the beginning farmer. If the Iowa Agricultural Development Division determines that the taxpayer is not at fault for the termination, the Division will not issue a tax credit certificate for subsequent years, but any prior tax credit certificates issued will be allowed. If the Division determines that the taxpayer is at fault for the termination, any prior tax credit certificates issued will be disallowed, and the tax credits can be recaptured by the Department of Revenue.

Angel Investor Tax Credit An Angel Investor Tax Credit, formerly known as Venture Capital Business Tax Credit, equaled 20% of a qualifying investment that is administered by the Iowa Economic Development Authority for investments made prior to July 1, 2015. Effective for investments made on or after July 1, 2015, the tax credit increased to 25% of the equity investment made in a qualifying business and became refundable when claimed against the individual income tax (see line 62 instructions). For other tax types, any tax credit in excess of the tax liability may be carried forward and applied against tax liability for the following three years or until depleted, whichever is earlier. When the nonrefundable tax credit is awarded, the taxpayer receives a tax credit certificate number that must be reported on the IA 148 Tax Credits Schedule when the tax credit is claimed using tax credit code 14. Iowa Code sections 15E.43 and 422.11F(1) Beginning Farmer Tax Credit For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2019, a beginning farmer tax credit is available for established farmers who lease agricultural assets to beginning farmers. The tax credit is available to the established farmer against individual and corporation income tax. The tax credit is only allowed for agricultural assets that are subject to a lease or rental agreement for a term of at least two years, but not more than five years, and that meets certain requirements listed in Iowa Code section 16.79A, and in administrative rules adopted by the Iowa Finance Authority. The taxpayer and the beginning farmer must meet certain qualifications listed in Iowa Code section 16.79, and in administrative rules adopted by the Iowa Finance Authority. The tax credit equals 5% of the amount paid to the taxpayer under a cash rent agreement or 15% of the crop share payments under the agreement using the formula established in administrative rule by the Iowa Finance Authority. If the agreement is made on a flexible basis, the tax credit equals the same 5/15 percent calculation and an additional calculation may be made to the extent the rent payment is adjusted after taking into account all risk-sharing factors provided in the agreement. The Iowa Finance Authority will establish criteria for commonly used risk-sharing factors and adjustment limits. Applications and tax credit awards are reviewed by the Agricultural Development Board. Tax credit certificates issued by the Iowa Agricultural Development Division of the Iowa Finance Authority pursuant to a tax credit award include the tax credit certificate number which must be reported on the IA 148 Tax Credits Schedule when the tax credit is claimed using tax credit code 17. Any tax credit in excess of tax liability can be carried forward and applied against tax liability for the following ten years or until depleted, whichever is earlier. A tax credit is not transferable to any other person other than the taxpayer's estate or trust upon the taxpayer's death. If the tax credit is issued to a partnership, limited liability company, S corporation, estate, or trust, the tax credit shall be claimed by the individual based on the individual’s pro rata share of the income of the entity. The lease or rental agreement may be terminated by either the taxpayer or the beginning farmer. If the Iowa Agricultural Development Division determines that the taxpayer is not at fault for the termination, the Division will not issue a tax credit certificate for subsequent years, but any prior tax credit certificates issued will be allowed. If the Division determines that the taxpayer is at fault for the termination, tax credits claimed for the year during which the termination occurs will be disallowed and recaptured by the Department of Revenue.

Adoption Tax Credit An Adoption Tax Credit is available for individual income tax equal to the first $5,000 of unreimbursed expenses related to an adoption per child placed in Iowa. There is no limit on the amount of income earned by an individual to be eligible for the credit. All claims for the adoption of a child cannot exceed the applicable limit based on the year the adoption became final. The Adoption Tax Credit can only be claimed once the adoption has been finalized. Prior to tax year 2019, only qualified adoption expenses paid or incurred during the tax year are eligible for the credit claimed in that tax year. If qualified adoption expenses were paid or incurred in an earlier year, a timely amended return can be filed for that earlier year claiming the Adoption Tax Credit. Beginning in tax year 2019, all qualifying adoption expenses paid in or before the year the adoption is finalized must be claimed in the tax year the adoption is finalized, up to the credit limit, regardless of the prior year in which the expenses were paid. EXAMPLE: Y and Z are married. Y and Z adopt a child who is permanently placed in Iowa. The adoption process begins in 2016 and becomes final in 2019. Because the adoption becomes final on or after January 1, 2017, Y

89

and Z qualify for a maximum credit amount of $5,000. Additionally, because the adoption becomes final on or after January 1, 2019, Y and Z may claim an Iowa adoption tax credit for unreimbursed qualified adoption expenses paid or incurred prior to or in the year the adoption becomes final. Y and Z incur and pay unreimbursed qualified adoption expenses of $5,000 in 2016, $10,000 in 2017, $2,000 in 2018, and $2,000 in 2019. Y and Z jointly file their Iowa individual income tax return in 2019. Y and Z may claim an Iowa adoption tax credit of $5,000 on their 2019 Iowa income tax return. Y and Z are not allowed to amend a prior year return in an attempt to claim the credit for unreimbursed qualified adoption expenses paid or incurred prior to the tax year in which the adoption became final. If additional qualifying expenses are paid after the year the adoption is finalized, and your previous expenses are under the credit limit, those expenses must be claimed in the year they were paid, up to the credit limit. EXAMPLE: W and X are married. W and X adopt a child who is permanently placed in Iowa. The adoption process begins in 2018 and becomes final in 2019. Because the adoption becomes final on or after January 1, 2017, W and X qualify for a maximum credit amount of $5,000. W and X incur and pay unreimbursed qualified adoption expenses of $1,000 in 2018, and $1,000 in 2019. W and X jointly file their Iowa individual income tax return in 2019. W and X may claim the Iowa adoption tax credit in 2019 in the amount of $2,000. In 2020, W and X incur and pay $5,000 in unreimbursed qualified adoption expenses in connection to the adoption finalized in 2019. W and X may claim the remaining $3,000 credit on their jointly filed Iowa individual income tax return for 2020 for unreimbursed qualified adoption expenses incurred and paid in 2020. W and X shall not amend their 2019 return to reflect the additional unreimbursed qualified adoption expenses from 2020. A part-year resident of Iowa may claim the credit if they were a resident of Iowa at the time the child was permanently placed. The IA 177 is used to compute the credit and must be included with the Iowa income tax return. The tax credit must also be reported on the IA 148 Tax Credit Schedule using tax credit code 66. If multiple children are adopted in a tax year, complete a separate IA 177 for each Adoption Tax Credit and report each claim on a separate line on the IA 148. Any tax credit in excess of tax liability is refundable. Any adoption expenses applied to the Adoption Tax Credit are excluded from the calculation of the Iowa itemized deduction for adoption expenses taken on line 20 of the IA 1040 Schedule A. The itemized deduction equals the expenses in excess of 3% of adjusted gross income. For example, if a taxpayer has $100,000 of adjusted gross income and $10,000 of adoption expenses, the taxpayer can claim a $5,000 Adoption Tax Credit and $2,000 of itemized deductions for adoption expenses. See line 37 for an example of the adoption expenses deduction. The adoption tax credit may only be claimed by a person who adopted the child. When a married couple adopts a child together and the couple files jointly on the same return, the credit may only be claimed once between the couple. When any other two persons adopt a child together, including married persons filing separately on the same or different returns or any unmarried persons filing on separate returns, the credit must be divided between the adoptive parents. Two adoptive parents, other than persons who are married filing jointly, may agree to divide the credit in any way. The total adoption tax credit claimed for all years by both parents combined may not exceed the applicable limit based on the year the adoption became final. Iowa Code section 422.12A

Iowa Code section 422.11P Claim of Right Tax Credit A Claim of Right Tax Credit may be claimed by a taxpayer who repaid income during the 2022 tax year that was reported and taxed on a prior Iowa income tax return. To calculate the credit, recompute tax liability in the prior tax year excluding the repaid income. The Claim of Right Tax Credit equals the calculated reduction in tax liability in that prior year. However, it may be more advantageous to report the amount of repaid income as an income adjustment on line 24. You may claim either the Claim of Right Tax Credit or take a deduction of the amount repaid on line 24, but not both. Example of Claim of Right Tax Credit: A taxpayer received a $5,000 bonus in 2020 and reported it on the 2020 Iowa return. In 2022 the taxpayer's employer advised that the bonus was awarded in error and was to be repaid. The bonus was repaid by the end of 2022. After recomputing the 2020 Iowa return, there is a $440 reduction in tax. The taxpayer may claim a credit of $440 on the 2022 IA 1040, line 62 or apply an income deduction of $5,000 on line 24.

Taxpayers may be subject to both the 5% failure to timely file penalty and the 5% failure to timely pay penalty. If 90% of the correct tax due is paid by the due date, then no penalty is due. To determine if 90% was paid, multiply IA 1040, line 56 by 90% (.90). If the result is equal to or less than the amount on the IA 1040, line 66, plus any payment made with a return filed by the due date, 90% (.90) of the tax has been paid timely and no penalty is due. Other penalties that may be assessed: 5% Penalty for audit or examination deficiency: If the Department discovers an underpayment during an audit or examination, a penalty of 5% will be added to the unpaid tax. $1,000 Penalty for Failure to File after Demand A $1,000 penalty is assessed when a taxpayer continues to fail to file 90 days after the Department issues a demand letter. A separate penalty will be assessed for each unfiled return listed in the demand letter. This penalty is in addition to the failure to file penalties listed above. 75% Penalty for fraud or frivolous tax return filings or willful failure to file a return: A person who willfully intends to make a false or frivolous tax return to claim a refund, or to evade tax is guilty of fraud. A penalty of 75% of the refund claimed will be due. This penalty cannot be waived. $500 Civil Penalty: A $500 civil penalty is assessed when a return is considered to be a “frivolous return.” A “frivolous return” is a return that lacks sufficient information to determine the substantial correctness of the amount of tax liability or contains information that indicates the amount of tax shown is substantially incorrect and this conduct is due to a position of law taken that is frivolous or a desire to delay or impede the administration of the tax laws of Iowa. Waivers: Penalties can be waived under limited circumstances, as described in Iowa Code section 421.27. Complete and submit a Penalty Waiver Request (78-629) to request a penalty be waived. 72b. Interest Interest must be added to delinquent tax. Interest is added at a rate of 0.5% per month beginning on the due date of the return (May 1) and accrues each month until paid in full. Part of a month constitutes a whole month, so if you pay the tax on June 3, you are late for May and June for a total interest rate of 1.0% (2 x 0.5%).

Step 13 Signature Step: 13 Step Subject: Signature Returns are not processed and refunds are not issued if returns are not signed. If you and your spouse file a joint or combined return, both of you must sign the return. Include a daytime telephone number. If a paid tax professional prepared your return, the preparer must also sign and enter a daytime telephone number and identification number. The Department will now allow electronic signing of the Declaration for e-File Return form via remote transaction. Returns will not be accepted if the electronic signatures are not digitally or electronically certified. This allows a taxpayer to electronically sign a Declaration for e-File Return form when the Electronic Return Originator is not physically present with the taxpayer. Deceased Taxpayer Check the box on the signature line, and enter the date of death. If your spouse died and you are filing a joint or combined return, write on the deceased’s signature line “Filing as a surviving spouse”, check the box on the signature line, and enter the date of death. If you have the legal authorization to file for the decedent, sign the return with your legal title or authorization. Also, include any forms required to be filed with your federal return, such as federal form 1310 or a copy of the court certificate showing your appointment as a personal representative of the decedent. Spouse Unable to Sign If your spouse cannot sign because of a medical condition and requests that you sign the return, sign your spouse's name in the proper place followed by the word "by" (your signature), followed by the word “spouse.” Be sure to also sign in the space provided for your signature. If you are the guardian for your spouse who is mentally incompetent, you may sign the return for your spouse as guardian. Minor Child If you are filing a return for a minor child who cannot sign the return, sign the child's name followed by the word "by" (your signature), followed by your relationship, such as "parent" or "guardian for minor child."

A person can be a resident of only one state at any given time. Usually, it is clear which state that is. Normally, it is the state in which one lives and works. Occasionally, however, the question of residency can be a little more difficult to answer. If a person moves during the year, or for some reason spends an extended period of time outside the state, the actual state of residence may not always be as obvious. Intent of Individual The issue of residency hinges mainly on the intent of the individual. That intent is often clear and easy to determine. If a person moves from one state to another with the intent of changing residence, that person will take certain actions. They will typically take obvious steps to eliminate ties and contacts with the former state, and establish similar ties and contacts with the new state. In some cases, however, the actions taken by the individual may create some confusion as to the actual intent.

102

Factors to Measure Intent When a person's intent is not readily apparent, several factors are used as a guide to measure that intent. No single factor can be used. All the facts and circumstances of the case must be weighed in their totality to determine a person's intent and residency. Some of the factors used in this analysis are listed below: • Are you registered to vote in Iowa? • Have you voted (in person or by absentee ballot) in an Iowa election? • Do you or any of your family attend Iowa schools? • Do you have an Iowa telephone listing and service? • Do you receive your mail in Iowa? • Do you have an Iowa driver's license? • Do you hold any business or professional licenses in Iowa? • Do you hold an Iowa hunting or fishing license? • Is your automobile registered in Iowa? Do you have Iowa license plates? • Are any boats or recreational or all-terrain vehicles registered in Iowa? • Do you own a home in Iowa? • Is your home larger than your home in any other state? • Do you claim homestead or military credits for property tax? • Do you keep your valuables, mementos, collections, jewelry, or prized personal possessions in Iowa? • Do you live in Iowa for more days of the tax year than in any other state? • Do you live in any other state for more days of the tax year than in Iowa? • Do you receive income from an Iowa source? • Do you receive services from doctors, dentists, attorneys, CPAs, or any other professionals located in Iowa? • Do you have an active membership in an Iowa church, club, professional or civic organization in Iowa, and participate as a result of the membership? • Do you claim a benefit on the federal income tax return based on an Iowa home being the principal place of business? • Do you have active checking or savings accounts or use of safe deposit boxes located in Iowa? • Do you have a location of employment in Iowa or active participation in a business within Iowa? • Is Iowa the state of residency in your Last Will and Testament? Please keep in mind that no single factor will typically be sufficient to make a residency determination. When viewed as a whole, the answers to the above questions will generally give a good indication as to the individual's intent, and therefore, to the state of residence. Residency Rules For more details on the subject of residency, including several examples, please refer to Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—300.17. Servicemembers and their Spouses Servicemembers and their spouses should reference Iowa Tax Responsibilities of Servicemembers and their Spouses for additional information.

103

Certified Tax Returns for Nonresidents Residents of other states who need a certified copy of the Iowa return for filing with their state of residence must include an extra copy of their Iowa return and a self-addressed stamped envelope when they file. A note stating the purpose of the extra copy should be included. The Department will stamp the copy and return it to you. Confidentiality Taxpayers provide confidential tax information to the Iowa Department of Revenue (IDR) in the form of individual income tax returns and other Iowa schedules, forms, and supporting documentation. Your tax information is kept confidential by IDR, with a few exceptions as required by law. Most notably, information from your return may be made available to the Internal Revenue Service or to tax officials of another state for tax administration purposes. Any IDR employee who discloses tax return information without legal authority is guilty of a serious misdemeanor, subject to a fine, incarceration, and civil damages. IDR will discuss confidential tax information only with the taxpayer, unless the taxpayer has properly authorized another individual to speak with or represent the taxpayer regarding the relevant tax year and issue. For more information, see Confidentiality, Disclosure, and Authorized Representation. If you do not provide individual income returns or the necessary information to support the return, or if you provide fraudulent information, you may be charged penalties and interest and may be subject to criminal prosecution. Credits: Refundable or Nonrefundable - What's the Difference? Although Iowa and the IRS may have the same type of credit, it may or may not be refundable on both returns. Nonrefundable Tax Credit A nonrefundable tax credit will reduce your tax liability. This credit may reduce your tax liability down to zero, but it will never generate a refund. An example of this type of credit is the Tuition and Textbook Credit or any other credit taken in Step 9 of the IA 1040 individual income tax form. Refundable Tax Credit A refundable tax credit will also reduce your tax liability. However, if this tax credit exceeds your tax liability it will generate an Iowa refund. An example of this type of credit is the Iowa Child and Dependent Care Credit or any other credit taken in Step 10 of the IA 1040 individual income tax form. Do You Owe Tax? Here Are Your Payment Options Direct Debit payment with the income tax return A Direct Debit is a tax payment electronically withdrawn from your bank account through the tax software used to electronically file individual income or corporation income tax returns. You will need to enter your bank routing number and your bank account number. Note: You receive credit for making the payment on the date you indicate the Department should withdraw it from your bank account. This may be the date you send it, or a date in the future if you request the payment to be warehoused for withdrawal at a later date. Please allow a week after the withdrawal date for your bank to post it to your account.

Questions about payment plans? Visit tax.iowa.gov/pay-delinquent-tax Estimated Payments Iowa Residents Iowa residents who expect to owe tax of $200 or more for 2023 from income not subject to withholding tax must make estimated tax payments to avoid a penalty for underpayment of estimated tax. For additional information, see IA 1040ES instructions. Farming or Commercial Fishing If at least 2/3 of your income is from farming or commercial fishing, you may avoid penalty for underpayment of estimated tax in one of the following ways: (1) You may pay the estimated tax in one payment on or before January 15, 2023, and file your return by June 1, 2023, or (2) you may file your return and pay the tax in full by March 1, 2023.* Nonresidents Nonresidents with nonwage income from Iowa, see IA 1040ES instructions.

How to Pay You can set up your payments to be automatically deducted from your bank or credit union account using ePay (free direct debit) by credit/debit card, in person or by mail. Simply select Individual Income Estimate Tax and the payment option that works best for you using EasyPay Iowa. * If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday as defined in Iowa Code section 421.9A, then the due date is the following day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday. Extension Requests The Department does not have an extension form to obtain additional time to file. A federal extension does not apply for Iowa purposes. If at least 90% of your total tax liability is paid by May 1, 2023, you will automatically have an additional six months to file your return. You will have until October 31, 2023, to file your return timely. You will not be charged a late file penalty. However, you may owe an IA 2210 penalty for failure to make estimated payments. You will owe interest on any tax still due after May 1, 2023. If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday as defined in Iowa Code section 421.9A, then the due date is the following day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday. How to determine if 90% of the tax you owe has already been paid: Multiply the amount on IA 1040, line 56 by 90% (.90). If the result is equal to or less than the amount on IA 1040, line 66, an extension is automatic. Example: • Total state and local tax before contributions from line 56 = $5,000 • $5,000 x 90% = $4,500 • Total credits from line 66 = $4,000 90% of the tax has not been paid. No extension is available to this taxpayer. This taxpayer will owe penalty and interest on the unpaid tax. Example: • Total state and local tax before contributions from line 56 = $3,000 • $3,000 x 90% = $2,700 • Total credits from line 66 = $2,850 This taxpayer receives an automatic extension until October 31, 2023 and will pay only interest on the unpaid tax. If you need to make a tax payment to meet the 90% requirement, you may: • arrange payment from your bank account through eFile & Pay (direct debit) on our website. • pay by credit / debit card online or by telephone • use the IA 1040V payment voucher form Farmers and Commercial Fishers If at least 2/3 of your income is from farming or commercial fishing, you may avoid penalty for underpayment of estimated tax in one of the following ways:

107

1. Pay the estimated tax in one payment on or before January 17, 2023, and file the Iowa income tax return by May 1, 2023, or 2. File the Iowa income tax return and pay the tax due in full on or before March 1, 2023. If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday as defined in Iowa Code section 421.9A, then the due date is the following day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday. Federal Bonus Depreciation / Section 179 Bonus Depreciation Bonus depreciation is available for Iowa tax purposes for assets placed in service in a tax year beginning on or after January 1, 2021. See IA 4562A&B for required adjustments for assets placed in service in a tax year beginning before January 1, 2021. Section 179 For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2020 the IRC section 179 limitations and phase-out threshold for Iowa purposes are the same as federal. See IA 4562A&B for required adjustments. How to Prorate Taxpayers using filing status 3 (married filing separately on a combined return) or status 4 (married filing separate returns) may be required to prorate (divide) certain entries on the IA 1040, such as reportable Social Security benefits, federal income tax refunds, estimated federal tax payments, itemized deductions, etc. Example 1: How spouses would prorate a federal refund: 2021 federal refund received in 2022 from a jointly-filed return: $1,000 Spouse A has net income of $15,000 on the 2021 IA 1040. Spouse B has net income of $30,000 on the 2021 IA 1040. Total net income: $45,000 on the 2021 IA 1040. Divide Spouse B's net income by total net income. $30,000 ÷ $45,000 = 66.7% The result is the percent of total net income earned by Spouse B. Then multiply the total 2021 federal refund amount by the result above. $1,000 X 66.7% = $667. This is Spouse B's portion of the refund, reported on line 27 in column B. Subtract Spouse B’s portion of the refund from the total 2021 federal refund amount. $1,000 - $667 = $333. This is Spouse A's portion of the refund, reported on line 27 in column A. These two amounts are entered on 2022 IA 1040, line 27.. Note: Round to the nearest one-tenth of a percent. For example, 66.74% becomes 66.7% and 66.75% becomes 66.8% Example 2: How to prorate Social Security Spouse A receives Social Security benefits of $30,000 Spouse B receives Social Security benefits of $20,000 Total Social Security benefits are $50,000 Divide Spouse A's Social Security benefits by the total Social Security benefits: $30,000 ÷ $50,000 = 60% The result is the percent of total Social Security benefits earned by Spouse A.

108

Complete the Iowa Social Security worksheet to determine what amount is reportable to Iowa. In this example, the total reportable Social Security benefits are $8,000. Now prorate the $8,000 between spouses. Multiply the total reportable Social Security benefits by the result above. $8,000 X 60% = $4,800. This is Spouse A's portion of reportable Social Security benefits to be entered in column A of step 4. Subtract Spouse A’s portion of reportable Social Security benefits from the total reportable Social Security benefits. $8,000 - $4,800 = $3,200. This is Spouse B’s portion of reportable Social Security benefits to be entered in column B of step 4. Example 3: Federal estimated tax payment proration Spouse A has income of $75,000 that is not subject to federal withholding. Spouse B has income of $8,000 that is not subject to federal withholding. Their total income not subject to federal withholding is $83,000. The estimated federal tax payments for this year totaled $18,000. Divide Spouse A's income that is not subject to federal withholding by the total income not subject to federal withholding. $75,000 ÷ $83,000 = 90.36% (rounded to 90.4%). The result is the percent of income not subject to federal withholding earned by Spouse A. Multiply the total estimated federal tax payments made for the tax year by the percentage above. $18,000 X 90.4% = $16,272. This is Spouse A's portion of estimated federal tax payments to be entered on line 32 in column A. Subtract Spouse A’s portion of estimated federal tax payments from the total estimated federal tax payments. $18,000 - $16,272 = $1,728 This is Spouse B's portion of estimated federal tax payments to be entered on line 32 in column B. Injured Spouse Injured spouse: The federal “injured spouse” form is not recognized by the State of Iowa when using filing status 2 (married filing jointly) or status 3 (married filing separately on a combined return). If your spouse’s refund will be used to pay a federal, state, county, or city debt, we suggest each spouse file an IA 1040, filing status 4 (married filing separately) to prevent your refund from being applied to your spouse’s debt. See Refunds May Be Used to Pay Debt. Relief from Joint and Several Liability Married taxpayers are generally jointly and severally liable for the total tax, penalty, and interest from a joint return or from a return where the spouses file separately on the combined return form. However, a person who meets the criteria for relief from joint and several liability established in Section 6015 of the Internal Revenue Code may be relieved of liability for an understatement of tax that is attributable to erroneous items of the other spouse. A married taxpayer filing a return with a spouse can qualify for relief from joint and several liability only if the taxpayers file a joint return or file separately on a combined return. A married taxpayer who files a separate return that has been accepted by the state will not be eligible for relief from joint and several liability. Time Period for Requesting Relief from Joint and Several Liability Relief from joint and several liability must be requested within two years of the date Notice of Assessment. However, an extended time period to request equitable relief is available for taxpayers who satisfy the criteria

109

under Section 6015(f) of the Internal Revenue Code and, if applicable, Internal Revenue Service Notice 2011-70. For additional information related to relief from joint and several liability, see Iowa Administrative Code rule 701–300.15. Iowa 2210 / 2210S General Information Either the IA 2210 or IA 2210S is used to determine if an individual taxpayer paid income tax sufficiently throughout the year. This form is used to calculate any penalty due. You may use the short method (IA 2210S) for 2210 penalty if: • You did not make any estimated payments, or • You paid the same amount of estimated tax on each of the four payment due dates. You must use the regular method (IA 2210) to calculate your 2210 penalty if: • You made any estimated tax payments late, • You choose to annualize your income for 2210 penalty calculations. Note: If any payment was made earlier than the due date for that payment, you may use the short method, but using it may cause you to pay a larger penalty than the regular method. If the payment was only a few days early, the difference is likely to be small. To find out if you owe 2210 penalty, complete the IA 1040 through line 69 then complete the IA 2210 or IA 2210S. You will need the amount of tax you paid Iowa in 2021 in addition to completing the 2022 Iowa return. Taxpayers who do not have Iowa tax withheld from their paychecks must pay Iowa tax on their income by making Iowa estimated tax payments on a quarterly basis. Estimated Payments If you file returns on a calendar-year basis and are required to file form IA 1040ES, you are generally required to pay the tax in four installments with the first installment due by April 30. You may benefit by using the IA 2210 Schedule AI Annualized Income Installment Method if your income varied during the year. Calendar-Year Taxpayers: If you are not required to file estimated payments until later in the year because of a change in your income or exemptions, you may be required to pay in fewer installments. IA 2210 Schedule AI Information Nonresident or Part-Year Resident Credit: Must be computed on the IA 126 for each period as follows: 1. Figure the Iowa-source gross income less any adjustments for the period. Multiply this income figure by the number for the corresponding period on Schedule AI, line 2 and enter on the IA 126, line 26. 2. Enter the amount from Schedule AI, line 3 on the IA 126, line 27. 3. Calculate the Iowa income percentage and the nonresident/part-year resident credit percentage on the IA 126, lines 28 and 29. 4. Enter the tax amount for the period from Schedule AI, line 13 on the IA 126, line 30. 5. Add the credits from Schedule AI, lines 16 and 17 that represent IA 1040, lines 43, 44, and 45. Enter this figure on form IA 126, line 31. 6. Compute the nonresident/part-year resident credit by subtracting the credits on IA 126,line 31 from the tax on IA 126, line 30, . Multiply this amount by the percentage on line 29. Enter this number on Iowa Schedule AI, line 17.

110

Out-of-State Tax Credit form IA 130 must be computed for each period: The gross income taxed by the other state/country, IA 130, line 1, must be annualized by multiplying by the annualization factor for the period. The gross income for residents, IA 130, line 2, is the amount on Iowa Schedule AI, line 3 (if a part-year resident, the amount is taken from IA 126, line 15) for the period. The tax, IA 130, line 4, is the amount on Iowa Schedule AI, line 13 for the period. The total tax imposed by the other state/country must be multiplied by a ratio of gross income taxed by the other state/country for the period to total gross income taxed by the other state/country. Example: Fred, a full-year resident, had $100,000 of income taxed by another state. The other state’s tax imposed was $4,000 for the year. For the period 1/1/21 to 3/31/22, the income taxed by the other state was $25,000. The computation for the tax imposed for the period 1/1/21 to 3/31/22 is ($4,000 times the annualization factor of 4.0 X 25,000/100,000). Please include a worksheet or tax form showing the calculations for each credit claimed on line 17. Estimated / Installment Payment Periods and Due Dates The chart below shows the due date for installments and the maximum number of installments required for each. More installments than required may be made in each period. Period Requirement First Met Installment is Due Maximum Number of Installments Required During the Year Between January 1 and April 1 April 30 4 Between April 2 and June 1 June 30 3 Between June 2 and September 1 September 30 2 After September 1 January 31 1 If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday as defined in Iowa Code section 421.9A, then the due date is the following day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday. Basic IA 2210 Calculation Criteria • Installment period due dates are important. When a due date is missed, penalty applies in most cases. • Payments are first carried back to any prior period with an underpayment. • Any overpayments are carried forward to the next period. • Any credit carryforward from the prior year is applied to the April 30 installment. • There may be more than one penalty calculation for an installment period if more than one payment was made in that period. • Withholding is credited equally in each installment period. Learn About the IA 2210 Form The first 13 lines of the 2210 form determine how much tax the taxpayer should have paid. The second part of the 2210 form determines what the penalty, if any, is on the tax that was not paid. Penalty is determined on a quarterly basis.

111

IA 2210 Example 1 An individual taxpayer did not make any estimated payments of Iowa income tax throughout the year. The taxpayer paid $4,000 when filing the tax return on April 30. Results: The taxpayer should have paid $1,000 each quarter, for a total of $4,000 for the entire year. This taxpayer owes 2210 penalty. IA 2210 Example 2 An individual taxpayer made four estimated payments of Iowa income tax for a total of $4,000. Although the full amount was eventually paid, some payments were not timely. Results: This taxpayer owes 2210 penalty. Why? It matters when the payments are made. If they are not timely, penalty is due. First installment period (due April 30): No payment was made by April 30; therefore, the taxpayer has a $1,000 underpayment and will be assessed a penalty. • The first payment of the year ($500) was made June 15. The second ($2,000) was two weeks later on June 30. • The underpayment is paid by applying the $500 paid June 15 and $500 of the $2,000 paid June 30. • The $500 paid June 15 has a penalty for 46 days (May 1 - June 15). The $500 paid June 30 has a penalty for 61 days (May 1 - June 30). Second installment period (due June 30): No penalty is charged for this period. • The taxpayer had $1,500 remaining from the $2,000 paid June 30 to apply to this period. • Of the remaining $1,500, $500 is carried forward to the next installment. Third installment period (due September 30): Penalty is charged for this period. $500 of the June 30 payment carried over to this period; therefore, the taxpayer still owes $500 for this period. • The taxpayer's third payment of $500 is made January 31, too late for the third period. This amount is applied to the third period. • Penalty on this $500 is for 92 days for the October 1 - December 31, quarter AND 31 days for Jan 1-31. Fourth installment period (due January 31): Since the taxpayer's January 31 payment applied to the third installment, penalty is due on $1,000. • The $1,000 payment made February 25, is applied to this period's underpayment. • Penalty on the $1,000 is for 25 days for February 1 - February 25. IA 2210S Example 1 An individual taxpayer did not make any estimated payments of Iowa income tax throughout the year. Results: The taxpayer should have paid $1,000 each quarter, for a total of $4,000 for the entire year. This taxpayer owes 2210 penalty. IA 2210S Example 2 An individual’s tax liability determined on the IA 1040 was $4,000. The individual made four estimated payments of Iowa income tax during the year in the amount of $500 each, for a total of $2,000. Payment of the remaining $2,000 due was made on April 15. Results: All payments were made on time, but the taxpayer should have made a total of $4,000 in estimated payments of Iowa income tax. This taxpayer owes 2210 penalty.

Iowa and Illinois Reciprocal Agreement Iowa's only income tax reciprocal agreement is with Illinois. Any wages or salaries earned by an Iowa resident working in Illinois are taxable only to Iowa and not to Illinois. Any wages or salaries earned by an Illinois resident working in Iowa are taxable only to Illinois and not to Iowa. Iowa will tax any Iowa-source income received by an Illinois resident that is not from wages or salaries. Illinois may tax any Illinois-source income received by an Iowa resident that is not from wages or salaries. Iowa gambling winnings and unemployment compensation for employment in Iowa are examples of income that are not wages and salaries and, therefore, not covered under the Iowa-Illinois Reciprocal Agreement. Iowa Resident Working for Wages or Salary in Illinois An Iowa resident working for wages or salary in Illinois should complete and file Illinois form IL-W-5-NR Employee's Statement of Nonresidence in Illinois with the employer so that the employer will withhold Iowa income tax. Illinois Resident Working for Wages or Salary in Iowa An Illinois resident working for wages or salary in Iowa should complete and file the Employee's Statement of Nonresidence in Iowa, 44-016 with the employer so that the employer will withhold Illinois income tax. Tax Withheld in Error If Illinois income tax has been mistakenly withheld from the wages or salary of an Iowa resident, the Iowa resident must file an Illinois income tax return to get a refund. Any questions on how to complete the Illinois return should be directed to the Illinois Department of Revenue at 800-732-8866. Illinois residents who have had Iowa income tax withheld in error from their wages and have no other Iowa- source income must file an Iowa income tax return requesting a refund. They should complete IA 1040, Steps 1, 2, and 3, show “0” on IA 1040, lines 1, 26, and 55, write “Illinois resident tax withheld in error” on the face of the return. On IA 1040 lines 63, 65, 66, 67, and 68 enter the Iowa tax withheld, sign the return and include copies of W-2s with the return. Copies of federal and Illinois returns must be included. Iowa Income Tax Responsibilities of Native Americans Definitions • "Native Americans" means all persons of Native American Indian descent who are members of any recognized tribe. • "Settlement" means all land within the boundaries of any recognized Native American settlement or reservation within the State of Iowa. Native Americans living on the settlement of their own tribe Taxable Income: • Wages for working off the settlement • Income from business or real estate located off the settlement Exempt Income: • Wages from working on the settlement • Income from business or property located on the settlement • Interest, dividends, and other income from intangibles, regardless of where the bank accounts, etc., are located

113

Native Americans living off the settlement of their own tribe If Residents of Iowa: • Taxed in the same manner as other residents. (Income from working on the settlement is taxable.) If Nonresidents of Iowa: • Taxed in the same manner as other nonresidents. (Income from working on the settlement is taxable.) Persons who are not tribal member Native Americans, regardless of whether they live on or off the settlement If Residents of Iowa: • Taxed in the same manner as other residents. (Income from working on the settlement is taxable.) If Nonresidents of Iowa: • Taxed in the same manner as other nonresidents. (Income from working on the settlement is taxable.) Iowa Tax Responsibilities of Servicemembers and their Spouses Resident Servicemembers Iowa residents who are members of the armed forces, armed forces military reserve, and the National Guard in an active duty status can exclude pay received from the federal government for military service performed. “Active duty,” for Iowa tax purposes, has the same meaning as defined in 10 U.S.C. § 101(d)(1). Iowa residents who are members of the military should include the active duty pay received from the federal government for military service performed as income on the IA 1040, line 1 and deduct the same active duty pay on line 24. These individuals should provide an IA W-4 to the payer of this income, claiming exemption from withholding on active duty pay. Servicemembers claiming this exclusion should be prepared to send a copy of their active duty military orders to the Department if requested to do so. When must a resident servicemember file an Iowa income tax return? If a servicemember is an Iowa resident, they must file an Iowa individual income tax return if they: • are married and their combined income* totals more than $13,500 ($32,000 if you or your spouse is 65 or older on 12/31/22) • are single and total income* is more than $9,000 ($24,000 if 65 or older on 12/31/22) • have income* of $5,000 or more and is claimed as a dependent on another person's Iowa return • are filing as head of household or qualifying surviving spouse and total income* is more than $13,500 ($32,000 if you or your spouse is 65 or older on 12/31/22) *Income does not include pay received from the federal government for military service performed by members of the armed forces, armed forces military reserve, and the National Guard in an active duty status. School District Surtax (Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—304.1) Each person has one and only one state of residence. A person may be a resident of a state even though he or she does not actually live in the state. A military person does not lose “home state” residency simply by being absent from the state while in the military. (Servicemembers Civil Relief Act) What income is subject to Iowa tax? (Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—302.76) Military pay to Iowa residents must be included on the IA 1040, line 1 to the same extent it is included on the federal return regardless of where the person is stationed when it is received.

114

Other income earned by an Iowa resident stationed in or out of Iowa is also taxable to Iowa to the same extent it is taxable on the federal level. If any of that income is correctly taxed by another state, then Iowa allows an Out-of-State Tax Credit on the IA 1040. This credit is calculated on the IA 130 form, which must be included with the IA 1040 along with a copy of the other state's return. Active duty pay Iowa resident members of the armed forces, armed forces military reserve, and the National Guard in an active duty status can exclude pay received from the federal government for military service performed. “Active duty,” for Iowa tax purposes, has the same meaning as defined in 10 U.S.C. § 101(d)(1). Note: Members who are employed full-time in the National Guard (as defined in Title 32 of the U.S. Code) are not considered in an active duty status, so their pay is not excluded from Iowa tax. Include all income on line 1 with other W-2, 1099, or W-2G income. Qualifying military income is then deducted on line 24 using code “b”. Combat zone pay Income excluded by the federal government is also excluded for Iowa income tax purposes. For example, combat zone pay is excluded on the Iowa return because it is excluded for federal income tax purposes. The federal Military Family Tax Relief Act of 2003 provides for a number of tax breaks related to military personnel. Iowa follows the federal treatment of the military adjustments to gross income. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) website is your best source of qualifying combat zones and tax breaks related to military personnel. See www.irs.gov/individuals/military Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation New Dawn, Operation Noble Eagle, or Operation Enduring Freedom (Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—302.61) There is an income tax exemption for active duty pay received from a source other than the federal government by a person in the National Guard or armed forces military reserve for services performed on or after January 1, 2003, pursuant to military orders for Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation New Dawn, Operation Noble Eagle, or Operation Enduring Freedom. The individual needs only to be called to active duty under the appropriate orders to qualify for the exemption of active duty pay. The individual does not have to be serving overseas to be eligible for the exemption, but can be serving in Iowa or elsewhere in the United States under the appropriate military orders and qualify for the exemption for active duty pay. Note that prior to tax year 2011, if a person in the National Guard or military reserve was called to active duty pursuant to military orders for an operation or purpose other than the operations specified above, the active duty pay is not exempt from Iowa income tax. Include all income on line 1 with other W-2, 1099, or W-2G income. Qualifying military income is then deducted on line 24. If you file a paper return, include a copy of your orders. If you file electronically, keep a copy of your orders with your tax records in case the Department requests them at a later date. Persian Gulf Conflict or Bosnia-Herzegovina Peacekeeping (Iowa Administrative Code rules 701—302.40 and 701—302.51) There is an income tax exemption for active duty pay received from a source other than the federal government by a person in the National Guard or armed forces military reserve for services performed on or after August 2, 1990, pursuant to military orders related to the Persian Gulf Conflict or for services performed outside the United States on or after November 21, 1995, pursuant to military orders related to peacekeeping in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

115

Military Student Loan Exemption (Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—302.63) Military student loan repayments included in federal adjusted gross income are exempt from Iowa income tax if the following criteria are met. This exemption may be taken by persons in the: • armed forces • armed forces military reserve • National Guard The individual must be on active duty at the time of the loan repayment. Include the loan repayment amount in line 1 and deduct it in line 24. Exclusion of Distributions from Retirement Plans by National Guard members and members of military reserve forces of the United (Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—302.58) If a National Guard member or member of the military reserve is called to National Guard duty or federal active duty and makes a withdrawal from a qualified retirement account of the member, the amount of the withdrawal is not subject to Iowa income tax or state tax penalty. If this income is reported as taxable pension income on the IA 1040, line 9, enter that amount on the IA 1040, line 24. Deferral of Collection of State Income Tax (Servicemembers Civil Relief Act) The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) is a federal law that, among other things, requires the Department to allow a deferral of collection of state income tax if a servicemember’s ability to pay is materially affected by their military service. The deferral lasts for only a period of up to 180 days after termination or release from military service. The SCRA only defers collection of income tax that has fallen due before or during military service. Servicemembers must still file their income tax returns, unless their duty to file is suspended by another authority. Do You Qualify? 1. You must be a “servicemember.” a. Members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and commissioned corps of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and of the Public Health Service are servicemembers under the SCRA. b. Members of the National Guard and reserves are servicemembers under the SCRA only if those members are serving under a call to active service authorized by the President or the Secretary of Defense for a period of more than 30 consecutive days. 2. You must serve during a period of “military service.” a. In the case of Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, or Coast Guard, a servicemember is serving in a period of military service if they are on “active duty.” b. In the case of commissioned officers of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or Public Health Service, a servicemember is serving in a period of military service if they are in “active service.” c. In the case of members of the National Guard and reserves, a servicemember is serving in a period of military service if they are serving under a call to active service authorized by the President or the Secretary of Defense for a period of more than 30 consecutive days. 3. You must be “materially affected” by your military service. a. The Department will consider all relevant facts and circumstances in determining whether servicemembers' ability to pay their income tax has been materially affected by their military service. d. You must be in “filing compliance.”

116

a. Servicemembers can receive a deferral of collection of income taxes only for periods in which they have filed an income tax return. 5. You must file a written request for deferral. a. Servicemembers must make a written request for deferral of collection of income to the Department by completing the Request for Deferral of Iowa Income Tax form. Servicemembers must submit a copy of their orders with their Request for Deferral of Iowa Income Tax form. Forgiveness of Tax (Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—301.11) Iowa income tax is forgiven if an individual’s federal income tax was forgiven because: • the individual was killed in a combat zone, or • the individual is missing in action and presumed dead, or • the individual was killed outside the United States due to terrorist or military action while he or she was a military or civilian employee of the United States Single status Iowa income tax is forgiven for the tax year in which the individual was killed or was missing and presumed dead and for the tax year prior to the year of death. Married / year of death All tax is forgiven for the year of death if the deceased was married at the time of death and his or her state filing status is joint or married filing separately on the combined return for that tax year. Married / prior year All tax is forgiven if the deceased was married at the time of death and a joint return or a married filing separate return was filed for the year prior to death. Please note that if the deceased had filed using the married filing separately on the combined return status, only the state income tax attributable to the deceased will be forgiven. Prior-year returns cannot be amended to change the filing status. (Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—301.11) Applying for Forgiveness of Tax To claim forgiveness of tax for an individual who was killed in military or terrorist action, or who is missing in action and presumed dead, the person filing an Iowa income tax return or an Iowa claim for refund should write at the top of the return “Forgiveness of Tax—Killed in Military Action” or “Forgiveness of Tax—Killed in Terrorist Action” depending on how the deceased was killed. A copy of the deceased’s death certificate, or other evidence that establishes that the deceased was killed in military or terrorist action or is missing in action and presumed dead, should be attached to the income tax return or to the claim for refund. Claims for refund will only be honored if the claim for refund is made within the statute of limitations for claims for refund provided in Iowa Code section 422.73. Return Due Date and Extensions (Iowa Administrative Code rules 701—301.12 and 701—301.14) The usual filing deadline for Iowa income tax returns is April 30. If 90% of the tax due is paid by that time, the deadline is extended to October 31. No extension form is available or required. Qualifying individuals may be granted extensions under certain circumstances for filing returns and for other acts related to the Department. These are listed below. Who qualifies for an extension? • Active duty military servicemembers in the armed forces, armed forces military reserve, or National Guard who are deployed outside the United States

117

• A person serving in support of those forces • A spouse of a person listed above if they file jointly or separately on a combined return or if they are a party with the eligible taxpayer to any other act related to the Department • An eligible individual who was continuously hospitalized because of illness or injury in the combat zone “Other acts related to the Department” includes: • Filing claims for refund for any tax administered by the Department • Making tax payments other than withholding payments • Filing appeals on the tax matters • Filing other tax returns • Performing other acts described in the Department’s rules Applying for the Extension To claim the extension, eligible taxpayers, and, if applicable, their spouses, should notify the Department of their eligibility by sending the information described below to the Department: • Taxpayer’s name and spouse’s name • Taxpayer’s date of birth and spouse’s date of birth • Taxpayer’s U.S. address and spouse’s address • Date of taxpayer’s deployment overseas • For military personnel, an official document that indicates taxpayer’s deployment • For qualifying civilians, a letter of authorization, a similar letter from the taxpayer’s employer, or a letter from the military stating that the taxpayer served in a “tax-free zone” or “Combat Zone Tax Exclusion Area (CZTE)” The taxpayer, the taxpayer’s spouse, or an authorized agent or representative of the taxpayer may submit the notification of eligibility to the Department. Extension Periods In general, the additional time period for filing state returns and performing other acts related to the Department is 180 days. IRS Military Web Page For further information about federal tax provisions governing military personnel, go to the IRS website at: www.irs.gov/individuals/military Nonresident Servicemembers The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) is a federal law that, among other things, protects servicemembers from losing their home state residency simply by being absent from their home state in compliance with military orders. The SCRA also protects servicemembers from establishing residency simply by being in another state where they are located pursuant to military orders. Residency (Iowa Administrative Code rule 701—300.17) Each person has one and only one state of residence. A person may be a resident of a state even though he or she does not actually live in the state. When is a servicemember an Iowa resident? A servicemember is an Iowa resident if:

118

• the servicemember was a resident of Iowa at the time of enlistment or • the servicemember has declared Iowa to be his or her “military home of record” or • the servicemember has taken positive action to establish residency in Iowa A person remains an Iowa resident until positive action is taken to establish residency in another state. See Are You a Resident of Iowa for Tax Purposes. Establishing residency in another state To establish residency in another state, a servicemember should first complete form DD2058, State of Legal Residence Certificate, which is available from the payroll officer of the Military Office of Personnel. However, completion of this form, alone, does not establish residency. A combination of the actions listed below is required to establish legal residence in another state. • physical presence in the other state • registering to vote in the other state • changing driver’s license • registering vehicles in the other state • applying for other privileges offered by the other state • payment of real estate tax or income tax in the new state If steps are not taken to change residency, a servicemember remains a resident of Iowa and is subject to Iowa income tax laws. The Director of the Iowa Department of Revenue may require an individual to provide proof that residency has been established in another state. Nonresident Military Income Beginning with tax year 2003, the following apply for Iowa as a result of the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act: Compensation for military service is not considered to be Iowa-source income for nonresident servicemembers. However, nonresident servicemembers who have Iowa income from sources other than compensation for military service may be subject to Iowa income tax. In general, the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act applies only to active duty members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, or Coast Guard and to commissioned officers of the Public Health Service or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration who are in active service. Generally, this does not include the National Guard or reserve personnel. Exceptions exist for nonresident members of the National Guard who are under active duty orders under Section 502(f) of Title 32 of the United States Code and for servicemembers who are absent from duty under specific circumstances. Servicemembers who are not residents of Iowa are required to file Iowa income tax returns if their all-source income meets the above requirements and their Iowa-source income is $1,000 or more. The nonresident servicemember does not include compensation for military service on the IA 1040 line 1 and also does not report it as Iowa income on the IA 126. The net result is a reduction of the tax rate on any other Iowa-source income. All other income, excluding military pay, is included on the Iowa income tax return (IA 1040) and tax is initially calculated on all income, excluding military pay. Once this is done, the nonresident turns to another Iowa form, the IA 126 Nonresident and Part-Year Resident Schedule. Only Iowa-source income is included on this

119

form and will not include military pay when calculating the credit. That credit is entered on the IA 1040 and is designed to minimize the taxation of income by Iowa and the other state. Nonresidents and part-year residents must file both the IA 1040 and the IA 126 with a complete copy of the federal return. IRS Military Web Page For further information about federal provisions that may impact military personnel, go to the IRS website at www.irs.gov/individuals/military Spouses of Servicemembers Under the Military Spouses Residency Relief Act of 2009 (MSRRA) and the Veterans Benefits and Transitions Act of 2018 (VBTA), the spouses of servicemembers may be exempt from Iowa income tax on income from services performed in Iowa if they are not residents of Iowa. Servicemembers’ spouses are protected, by federal law, from losing their home state residency simply by being absent from their home state in order to be with the servicemember spouse who is elsewhere in compliance with military orders. Federal law also protects servicemembers’ spouses from establishing residency simply by being in another state where they are located to be with the servicemember spouse pursuant to military orders. Spouses covered by the MSRRA can establish new residency when they take positive action to do so. Under the MSRRA and Iowa law, a servicemember’s spouse’s income from wages, salaries, tips, etc., may be excluded from Iowa income tax if: • the servicemember spouse is a member of the uniformed services present in Iowa in compliance with his or her orders • the non-servicemember spouse is present in Iowa solely to be with the servicemember spouse, and • the non-servicemember spouse is a resident of another state. Under the VBTA, a servicemember’s spouse’s income from wages, salaries, tips, etc., may be excluded from Iowa income tax if: • the non-servicemember spouse elects to use the same residence as the servicemember spouse for tax purposes. Other income, like interest income or rental income, is included in a nonresident spouse’s Iowa income and may be taxed in Iowa. Iowa W-4 The IA W-4 includes information related to this federal law. If you claim this exclusion, check the appropriate box on the IA W-4 and enter the state other than Iowa you are claiming as your state of domicile or residence for tax purposes. Attach a copy of your spousal military identification card to the IA W-4 form provided by your employer. Filing Iowa Income Tax Returns Spouses who are eligible for this exclusion on their Iowa income tax return should report all-source income on the IA 1040, but should show no Iowa wages, salaries, tips, or Schedule C income on the IA 126. Enter the amount from IA 126, line 33 on IA 1040 line 48. Iowa income tax withheld should be entered on line 63, IA 1040. Then complete the remainder of the IA 1040 to determine the amount of any refund that may be due.

121

Nonresidents and Part-Year Residents A nonresident or part-year resident of Iowa must complete the IA 1040 reporting the individual’s total income, including income earned outside Iowa. The taxpayer is allowed adjustments to income, a federal tax deduction, and standard or itemized deductions on the same basis as if the taxpayer were a resident of Iowa. The nonresident or part-year resident then completes a Schedule IA 126. On the IA 126, only Iowa income is reported and a percentage of Iowa income to total income is determined. The taxpayer receives a credit against the initial tax liability based on the percentage of income from outside Iowa. Therefore, the result of this credit is that only Iowa-source income is taxed. Although non-Iowa income is used to calculate the initial tax liability at the appropriate tax rate, the non-Iowa income itself is not subject to tax. By using this method, Iowa taxes the Iowa-source income of nonresidents and part-year residents at the same rate it taxes Iowa residents. Iowa, like many states and the federal government, uses a graduated tax rate system based on level of income. A nonresident of Iowa with all-source income of $250,000 and $10,000 of Iowa income, will use the same tax rate as an Iowa resident with $250,000 of income to calculate their initial tax liability, rather than using the same tax rate as an Iowa resident with $10,000 of total income. A part-year resident may also complete the IA 130 if they have income earned while an Iowa resident which is taxed by another state, local jurisdiction, or foreign country. For more information, see IA 130. Nonresidents with Gambling Winnings Complete the IA 1040, showing income from all sources, similar to your federal return. Show gambling winnings on line 13. Taxpayers with gambling winnings are eligible to claim gambling losses on IA Schedule A. Gambling losses are deductible only to the extent of gambling winnings reported on IA 1040, line 13. The gambling loss amount entered on your IA Schedule A shall only include losses from wagering transactions, and does not extend to business expenses incurred in the trade or business of gambling. For example, if your gambling winnings for the year are $1,000, your IA Schedule A deduction for gambling losses cannot exceed $1,000. Taxpayers who claim the standard deduction on the Iowa return cannot deduct their gambling losses, although they must still report gambling winnings. Complete the return through line 47. Then use the IA 126 to determine your credit based upon the percentage of Iowa income to total income. This credit is taken on line 48. Include a copy of your federal return. Record Keeping Iowa income tax returns and all supporting documentation, including federal returns and all relevant schedules, should be kept for at least 10 years after filing the return. If you have unreported income or fraudulent filings, the statute of limitations for examination by the Department is unlimited. Refunds May Be Used to Pay Debt The State of Iowa may take refunds to pay certain debts. This process is called offsetting refunds.

Debts that may be offset include: • taxes owed to the State of Iowa • taxes owed to the Internal Revenue Service • unpaid child support • overpayment of unemployment benefits • fines owed to counties • unpaid college aid loans • Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or other food assistance overpayment • Family Investment Program (FIP) overpayment • any other debt owed to a state or municipal agency Letter Sent to Taxpayer When a refund is kept by the state to pay debt, a letter is sent to the taxpayer by the agency offsetting the money. For example, when a refund from an individual income tax return is used to pay back child support, the Department of Human Services will send a letter to the taxpayer. More Than One Debt A refund or payment may be taken to pay more than one debt; for instance, if a taxpayer has college aid loan debt and also has an unpaid county fine. Each offsetting agency has up to 45 days to process their offset. Remaining Refund If an entire refund or payment is not needed to pay the debt, the remainder will be sent to the taxpayer. If direct deposit was requested, the remainder will be refunded by direct deposit. Innocent Spouse Relief from Joint and Several Liability If you file a joint return, and there is an amount due, both you and your spouse are totally and equally liable for the entire debt. If you have an outstanding liability, jointly or individually, and you file a return and are due a refund, regardless if there is an existing arrangement on the account by either party, these funds are still subject to being offset. However, there is a process to follow if you believe your spouse (or former spouse) is responsible for the debt in question. Iowa follows the federal IRS determination for relief from joint and several liability. If you desire relief from joint and several liability you should do one of the following: • File IRS form 8857 as soon as you become aware of a tax liability for which you believe only your spouse or former spouse should be held responsible. If relief is granted, you will be asked to provide your IRS final determination letter to request relief from your Iowa tax debt. • If you filed IRS form 8857 but did not receive a final determination letter or other document issued by the IRS you must provide the Department with other evidence to support the position that you are eligible for relief under Iowa Code section 422.21(7) • If you did not apply for federal relief you must submit a written statement to the Department detailing the reason for not applying for relief under IRC section 6015 as well as evidence to support the position that you are eligible for relief under Iowa Code section 422.21(7) By requesting relief from joint and several liability, you can be relieved of responsibility for paying tax, interest, and penalties if your spouse (or former spouse) improperly reported items or omitted items on your tax return. Generally, the tax, interest, and penalties that qualify for relief can only be collected from your

spouse (or former spouse). However, you are jointly and individually responsible for any tax, interest, and penalties that do not qualify for relief. Supporting Documentation Include all necessary supporting documentation and a copy of your federal return. Place documents in the following order: 1. Check or Money Order 2. IA 1040V Payment Voucher 3. W-2s and 1099s 4. IA 1040 5. Iowa schedules, forms, and supporting documentation 6. Copy of complete federal return 7. Copy of any other applicable state tax returns Do not staple the IA 1040 or any supporting documentation. Include all required schedules, even if the schedule results in zero dollars. Use Tax Information for Businesses and Individuals Do you purchase items from out of state or through the internet, catalogs, magazines, or vendors who advertise on television or radio? Will those items be used in Iowa? Would they be subject to Iowa sales tax if purchased in Iowa? Are you paying tax on those purchases? If not, you owe Iowa use tax on the purchase price. This tax was established in 1937, three years after the sales tax was enacted, to create a fair playing field for Iowa businesses. If you purchase tangible personal property for use in Iowa and the seller does not charge you Iowa tax on the purchase, you owe a 6% tax known as the use tax on the price of the purchase. Individuals: Individuals without a permit who rarely make purchases subject to use tax should pay their tax in one of the following ways: • Electronically through EasyPay Iowa • Complete the worksheet available on the Department’s website and send to: Iowa Department of Revenue PO Box 10412 Des Moines, IA 50306-0412 Make check payable to: “Iowa Department of Revenue” Anyone who regularly purchases merchandise from out of state for their own use in Iowa should register for a use tax permit and pay the tax on a quarterly basis.

Businesses: Businesses making taxable purchases on a regular basis should register with the Iowa Department of Revenue to file use tax returns. However, some businesses may only occasionally make purchases for their own use and owe Iowa use tax. If this type of purchase is not typical for your business, instead of separately registering for use tax, you can report the purchase on the Total Taxable Purchases line of your monthly or annual sales and use tax return or file and pay the tax as outlined for individuals above.

If you have moved: Contact your employer with your new address. If you simply have not received it: Contact your employer and try to find out why you have not received the W-2. If you still do not receive it: You may also call the IRS at 800-829-1040. They will work with you and explain the steps needed to receive a substitute W-2. Iowa will accept a copy of the substitute W-2 filed with the IRS. However, the substitute W-2 may not show Iowa withholding. No credit for Iowa withholding can be given in this case unless you have pay stubs that show Iowa withholding. If you need a W-2 from a previous year, here are some other possible options: • Social Security Administration (SSA) - may provide copies of Forms W-2 for retirement purposes at no charge and for other than retirement purposes for a fee. Call 1-800-772-1213, or visit the SSA web site at www.ssa.gov for instructions on how to obtain wage information from the SSA. • Internal Revenue Service (IRS) - may provide an exact copy of a previously filed and processed tax return with attachments (including the form W-2). You should complete Form 4506, Request for Copy of Tax Return, and mail it to the address listed in the instructions. A fee will be charged for each tax year requested. Note: The Iowa Department of Revenue is not able to provide you with a copy of your W-2 information.
