Shopping online is easy, but it’s not free. Utah loses tax revenue every year to online sales. This makes it harder for the state to pay for everything from education to healthcare. When online sellers do not collect sales tax, it becomes your responsibility to pay use tax. You must pay this use tax when you file your Utah income tax return. See page 9 for more information and a worksheet on page 10 to help you calculate how much use tax you owe. You Should Know: • Purchases are not exempt from tax just because you make them online. • Use tax applies to any pur- chase that sales tax would. • Your use tax rate depends on where you live. See page 10. • Grocery food is taxed at a flat 3 percent across Utah. • Some online sellers have tools to help you calculate the use tax you owe. Y S &+(&.287 DID YOU BUY ANYTHING ONLINE LAST YEAR?

See page 16. • Utah tax rate: The 2022 Utah Legislature passed SB 59, lowering the state individual income tax rate from 4.95 percent to 4.85 percent. • Earned income tax credit: The 2022 Utah Legislature passed SB 59, creating the Utah Earned Income Tax Credit. See page 20. • Tax paid on behalf of a pass-through entity taxpayer: The 2022 Utah legislature passed HB 444, allowing a pass- through entity to pay tax on behalf of a pass-through entity taxpayer. This bill created an addition to income (see page 16) and a nonrefundable tax credit (see page 24).

This coalition of statewide partners offers free tax preparation and free online DIY tax prep to certain low-income taxpayers. See UtahTaxHelp.org. Federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) The federal earned income tax credit is a refundable federal (not Utah) tax credit for certain people who work and have earned income. The credit can mean a larger refund or a reduction in your federal tax. Check the IRS website at irs.gov/eitc, or call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 to see if you qualify. See information about the Utah earned income tax credit on page 20. Who Must File You must fi le a Utah TC-40 return if you: 1. are a Utah resident or part-year resident who must fi le a federal return, 2. are a nonresident or part-year resident with income from Utah sources who must fi le a federal return, or 3. want a refund of any income tax overpaid. To fi le a Utah return, fi rst complete your federal return, even if you do not have to fi le with the IRS. You need the federal return information to complete your Utah return. Qualifi ed Exempt Taxpayer: You may be exempt from Utah individual income tax if your federal adjusted gross income is less than your federal standard deduction. See instructions for line 21. Nonresident Filing Exemption: You do not need to fi le a Utah return if: 1. you are a nonresident whose only Utah source of income is from a partnership, S corporation or trust (or other pass- through entity); 2. the partnership, S corporation, trust or other pass-through entities withheld Utah income tax on your Utah income; and 3. you are not claiming a Utah tax credit. When to File and Pay You must fi le your return and pay any tax due: 1. by April 18, 2023, if you fi le on a calendar year basis (tax year ends Dec. 31, 2022); or 2. by the 15th day of the fourth month after the fi scal year ends, if you fi le on a fi scal year basis. If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the due date is the next business day. Note: The due date may change if the IRS changes the due date of the federal return. Check incometax.utah.gov if you have questions. You must pay all Utah income taxes for the tax year by the due date. You may be subject to penalties and interest if you do not fi le your return on time or do not pay all income tax due by the due date. (See instructions for line 41). Utah does not require quarterly estimated tax payments. You can prepay at any time at tap.utah.gov, or by mailing your payment with form TC-546, Individual Income Tax Prepayment Coupon. Extension of Time to File
This is NOT an extension of time to pay your taxes – it is an extension to fi le your return. You get an automatic extension of up to six months to fi le your return. You do not need to fi le an extension form, but we will assess penalties if you have not met the prepayment requirements (see below). See instructions for line 41. All extension returns must be fi led by Oct. 16, 2023. Prepayment Requirements for Filing Extension You must prepay by the original due date: • 90 percent of your 2022 tax due (TC-40, line 27 plus line 30); • 100 percent of your 2021 tax liability (2021 TC-40, line 27 plus line 30); or
3 2022 Utah TC-40 Instructions • 90 percent of your 2022 tax due (TC-40, line 27 plus line 30) if you did not have a Utah tax liability in 2021 or if this is your fi rst year fi ling. You may prepay through withholding (W-2, TC-675R, 1099-R, etc.), payments applied from previous year refunds, credits and credit carryovers, or payments made by the tax due date using form TC-546, Individual Income Tax Prepayment Coupon, or at tap.utah.gov. Interest is assessed on unpaid tax from the original fi ling due date until the tax is paid in full. Penalties may also apply. How to File File your Utah taxes at tap.utah.gov. If fi ling on paper, mail your return to the address on page 1. What to Attach and What to Keep Attach Send the following with your Utah return (also keep a copy with your tax records): • Utah Schedules

An explanation for any equitable adjustment entered on TC-40A, Part 2, code 79. • Other Forms

FYI: Withholding Forms You must enter withholding tax information on form TC-40W. Attach TC-40W to your return. Keep Do not send forms W-2, 1099-R, 1099-MISC, Utah Schedule K-1 or TC-675R with your return. If you do not complete and submit form TC-40W with your return, processing will be de- layed and we may reject your withholding credit. Do not send a copy of your federal return, credit schedules (other than Utah schedules TC-40A, TC-40B, TC-40S and/or TC-40W), worksheets, or other documentation with your Utah return. Recordkeeping Keep copies of any receipts, tax forms, worksheets and other documentation to support any income, deduction, exemption and credit you have reported. We may ask you to provide this information later to support entries on your Utah return. Rounding Off to Whole Dollars Round off cents to the nearest whole dollar. Round down if under 50 cents; round up if 50 cents and above. Do not enter cents on the return. Negative Numbers When reporting losses or other negative numbers, do not use parentheses. Always indicate a negative number with a minus sign (-). Utah Domicile (UC §59-10-136) Test 1 You are domiciled in Utah if: 1. You or your spouse claimed a child tax credit (IRC §24) for a dependent on your federal tax return, and the dependent is enrolled in a Utah public K-12 school. This does not apply if you are the dependent’s noncustodial parent and are divorced from, or were never married to, the custodial parent. 2. You or your spouse is enrolled as a resident student in a Utah state institution of higher education. Test 2 There is a rebuttable presumption you are domiciled in Utah (i.e., you are domiciled in Utah unless you can prove otherwise) if you or your spouse: 1. claims a residential exemption for a primary residence under UC §59-2, Property Tax Act, 2. voted in Utah during the taxable year and were not regis- tered to vote in another state during that time, or 3. fi le a Utah income tax return as a full-year or part-year resident. Test 3 Even if you do not meet any of the conditions above, you are still domiciled in Utah if: 1. either you or your spouse has a permanent home in Utah to which either of you intend to return after being absent; and 2. you or your spouse has voluntarily settled in Utah, not for a special or temporary purpose, but with the intent of making a permanent home. Under Test 3, whether you have a permanent home in Utah is based on a preponderance of the evidence (i.e., the evi- dence you have a permanent home is more convincing than any evidence you do not), taking into consideration all of the following facts and circumstances: • You or your spouse has a Utah driver’s license. • You or your spouse claims a federal tax credit (IRC §24) for a dependent who is enrolled as a resident student in a Utah state institution of higher education. • The nature and quality of the living accommodations you or your spouse has in Utah compared to another state. • You have a spouse or dependent in Utah for whom you or your spouse claims a federal tax credit under IRC §24.
4 2022 Utah TC-40 Instructions • The physical location where you or your spouse earns income. • The state of registration of a vehicle owned or leased by you or your spouse. • You or your spouse has a membership in a church, club or similar organization in Utah. • You or your spouse lists a Utah address on mail, a telephone listing, a listing in an offi cial government publication, other correspondence, or similar item. • You or your spouse lists a Utah address on a federal or state tax return. • You or your spouse claims Utah residency on a document (other than a Utah income tax return) fi led with or provided to a court or other government entity. • You or your spouse fails to obtain a permit or license nor- mally required of a resident in the state where you claim to have domicile. • You are the noncustodial parent of a dependent enrolled in a Utah public K-12 school for which you claimed a child tax credit (IRC §24) on your federal tax return, and you are divorced from the custodial parent. • You maintain a place of abode in Utah and spent 183 or more days of the taxable year in Utah. • You or your spouse did not vote in Utah during the taxable year but voted in Utah in any of the three prior years and was not registered to vote in another state during those three years. No Utah Domicile You do not have Utah domicile if you are absent from Utah for at least 761 consecutive days and during this time you or your spouse: 1. do not return to Utah for more than 30 days in a calendar year, 2. do not claim a child tax credit under IRC §24 on your federal tax return for a dependent who is enrolled in a Utah public K-12 school (unless you are a noncustodial parent of the dependent and are divorced from the custodial parent), 3. are not enrolled in a Utah state institution of higher educa- tion as a resident student, 4. do not claim the residential exemption for property tax on your primary residence in Utah, or 5. do not claim Utah as your tax home for federal tax purposes. An absence from the state begins on the later of the date you or your spouse leaves Utah and ends on the day you or your spouse returns to and stays in Utah for more than 30 days in a calendar year. If you do not have Utah domicile, you may choose to have Utah domicile by fi ling a Utah resident income tax return. Spouses If your spouse has Utah domicile under Test 1 (above), you also have Utah domicile. If your spouse has Utah domicile under Test 2 or 3, you also have Utah domicile unless you can establish by a preponderance of the evidence (i.e., the evidence for your claim is more convincing than any evidence against it) that during the taxable year and the three prior years you did not: 1. own property in Utah, 2. spend more than 30 days in a calendar year in Utah, 3. receive earned income for services performed in Utah, 4. vote in Utah, or 5. have a Utah driver’s license. You are not considered to have a spouse with Utah domicile if: 1. you and your spouse are legally separated or divorced, or 2. you and your spouse both claimed married fi ling separately on your federal individual income tax returns for the taxable year. You must fi le a Utah income tax return (or amended return) and pay any penalty and interest that apply if you did not fi le a Utah return based upon your belief that you did not meet the domicile criteria. " Resident" Defi ned A resident is a person who is domiciled in Utah for any period during the taxable year, but only for the duration of that period. "Nonresident" Defi ned A nonresident is a person who is not a resident. " Part-Year Resident" Defi ned A part-year resident is a person who is a resident for part of the year and a nonresident for part of the year. All income received during the period of residency is taxable in Utah, regardless of where that income is earned, unless specifi cally exempted. Income from Utah sources is taxable in Utah during the period of nonresidency. Military Special domicile rules apply to service members and their spouses. See Pub 57, Military Personnel Instructions. Native Americans Native Americans who earn income in Utah must fi le a Utah tax return. Certain income earned by Utah Native Americans may be exempt from Utah income tax. See page 16 to see if you qualify. Students All Utah residency rules and fi ling requirements apply to students, including Utah residents going to school in another state and non-residents attending a Utah school. Income from Other States Utah residents who earn income in other states must pay Utah tax on that income. You may claim a credit for income tax paid to another state if the other state also taxes the same income. See Credit for Income Tax Paid to Another State in Schedule A instructions.
5 2022 Utah TC-40 Instructions Income from Other Countries Utah residents who live and work abroad must pay Utah tax on income earned in other countries if the income is included in federal adjusted gross income on the federal return. There is no Utah credit for taxes paid to another country. See Federal Tax Credits, below. Foreign Nationals & Expatriates A foreign national or expatriate who meets Utah domicile and residency requirements is considered a Utah resident for tax purposes. See Utah Domicile, above. You must pay tax on income earned from Utah sources if that income is included in your adjusted gross income on your federal return. Injured Spouse If your spouse had outstanding Utah tax liabilities before your marriage, any refund on a joint Utah return may be used to pay that liability. You may be able to claim part or all of a refund under the injured spouse provisions. If another state, a federal agency or another entity claimed your refund to pay a debt owed to them, contact them directly. Attach a copy of federal form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation, to the front of your joint Utah return if claiming injured spouse provisions and a joint refund is expected to be applied (offset) to a past-due Utah tax obligation of the other spouse. See more information at tax.utah.gov/extension/innocent. Innocent Spouse If your spouse did not report income or claimed false deduc- tions or credits and you did not receive any benefi t, you may be entitled to relief from your tax liability. See more information at tax.utah.gov/extension/innocent. Fiscal Year Filers You can be a Utah fi scal year fi ler only if you are a federal fi scal year fi ler. Utah follows the same rules and guidelines for fi scal year fi lers as the IRS. See IRS Publications 17, 505 and 538. Use the tax forms for the year in which your fi scal year begins. Prepare your federal tax return before your Utah return. Special Utah Rules • Enter your fi scal year end date on TC-40, page 3, Part 2. • Calculate your Utah taxpayer tax credit using the qualifi ed dependents and standard or itemized deductions from your fi scal year federal return. Use the credit phase-out amount shown on the Utah return for the year in which your fi scal year began. • Calculate non-refundable Utah credits using amounts and facts that apply to your fi scal year. For example, to claim a credit for a contribution to a my529 plan, use the amount contributed during your fi scal year, but the maximum you may take is the maximum allowed for the calendar year in which your fi scal year began. • Report Utah use tax for purchases during your fi scal year, using the rate chart for the calendar year in which your fi scal year began. • Calculate credits for withholding tax, pass-through entity withholding tax and mineral production withholding tax based on forms W-2 and 1099 for the year in which your fi scal year began. Amended Return To amend a previously-fi led return, use the tax forms and instructions for the year you are amending. Get prior year forms and instructions at tax.utah.gov/forms. Note: You cannot use TAP to fi le amended returns. Amend your return if you fi nd an error on your Utah or federal return, or if your federal return is audited or adjusted by the IRS in a way that affects your Utah return. You must amend your Utah return within 90 days of the IRS’s fi nal determination. See Deadlines to Claim a Refund or Credit, below. How to Amend a 2022 Return A. On the top of TC-40, page 1, on the “Amended Return" line, enter the code number from the following list that best describes your Reason for Amending: Reason-for-Amending Codes (enter on return) 1 You fi led an amended federal return with the IRS. Attach a copy of your amended federal return, form 1040X. (If amending for a net operating loss, do not use code 1, use code 4 - see below.) 2 You made an error on your Utah return. Attach an explanation of the error. 3 Your federal return was changed by an IRS audit or adjustment and it affects your Utah return. Attach a copy of the IRS adjustment. 4 You had a net operating loss. Utah treats net oper- ating losses the same as the federal return. If any part of your amended return is from a net operating loss carryback, use code 4 and complete a Utah return for each year you are amending. Attach a copy of your amended federal return, form 1040X or 1045. Your documentation must clearly show the year you experienced the loss. 5 Other. Attach an explanation to your return. B. Enter the corrected fi gures on the return and/or schedules. C. Enter all other amounts as shown on your original return. If you received a refund on your original return, enter the amount of the previous refund on line 29 of your 2022 amended return. If you paid with the original return or made subsequent tax payments before fi ling the amended return, enter the total previous payments on line 37 of your 2022 amended return. Contributions on line 28 and my529 deposits from TC-40 page 3, Part 5 cannot be changed after the original return is fi led. D. Submit the amended return with all schedules, including copies of those schedules that did not change from the original fi ling. E. Do not submit a copy of your original return with your amended return.
6 2022 Utah TC-40 Instructions Federal Tax Credits Federal income tax credits do not have an effect on Utah income tax. See UC §59-10-110. There are some situations on the federal return that let you take a tax credit instead of excluding income from adjusted gross income or taking an itemized deduction. For example: • Foreign tax credit -OR- Foreign earned income exclusion • Lifetime learning credit -OR- Tuition deductions Be aware: In these cases, if you choose to take a credit on your federal return instead of using an exclusion or deduction, you lose the tax benefi t on your Utah return. Do not adjust your federal adjusted gross income or itemized deductions on your Utah return in an effort to gain the tax advantage — report your adjusted gross income and itemized deductions exactly as they appear on your federal return. Utah Losses and Loss Carries You must treat federal net operating losses on your Utah return in the same manner as you do on your federal return. Nonresidents and part-year residents with a Utah loss but no federal net operating loss can apportion their Utah tax for the loss year to zero on Schedule TC-40B, but may not carry the remaining loss forward or back to other years. Deadlines to Claim a Refund or Credit (UC §§59-1-1410 and 59-10-529) To qualify for a refund or credit, you must fi le a return within: • three years from the original return due date (plus exten- sions), or • two years from the payment date. For amended returns, you must fi le a claim for refund or credit within: • two years after you had to fi le an amended Utah return based on changes to your federal return made by the IRS, or • three years from the original due date (plus extensions) of the return of a loss year to report a net operating loss carryback.

The penalties are a percentage of the unpaid tax, based on the number of days late.

If the return is not fi led by the extension due date, failure to fi le and pay penalties will apply as if the extension had not been granted. There is no late fi ling penalty (including on an amended return) if you have no tax due on the return. Interest Interest is in addition to penalties due.

See Pub 57, Military Personnel Instructions. Special Instructions for Couples 1. Complete a federal return “as if” you were fi ling separately. DO NOT fi le the “as if” return with the IRS. Use this return ONLY to complete these special instructions. 2. Determine your allocation percentage:
A. Adjusted gross income on your married fi ling joint federal return ___________
B. Utah resident spouse’s federal adjusted gross income only
___________
- For a full-year Utah resident, federal “as if” adjusted gross income.
- For a nonresident who has Utah income and must fi le a Utah return, federal adjusted gross income. C. Allocation percentage ___________
- Divide line B by line A and carry to four decimal places. 3. Follow the line-by-line instructions in this book to complete Utah form TC-40, with the following exceptions:
