R865-9I-3. Credit for Income Tax Paid by an Individual to Another State Pursuant to Utah Code Ann. Section 59-10-1003.
(1) A Utah resident taxpayer is required to report his entire state taxable income pursuant to Section 59-10-1003 even though part of the income may be from sources outside this state.
(2) Except to the extent allowed in Subsection (4), a resident taxpayer may claim the credit provided in Section 59-10-1003 by:
(a) filing a resident Utah return showing the computation of tax based on total income before any credit for taxes in another state;
(b) completing form TC-40A, Credit For Income Tax Paid To Another State, for each state for which a credit is claimed; and
(c) attaching any schedule completed under Subsection (2)(b) to the individual income tax return.
(3) A part-year resident taxpayer may claim credit on that portion of income subject to both Utah tax and tax in another state. The credit is claimed in the same manner as claimed by a full-year resident, but only for that portion of the year that the nonresident taxpayer was living in Utah. Form TC-40A, Credit For Income Tax Paid To Another State, must be completed and attached to the individual income tax return for each state for which a credit is claimed.
(4) For only those states in which a resident professional athlete has participated in his team's composite return or simplified withholding, a resident professional athlete may claim the credit provided in Section 59-10-1003 by:
(a) filing a resident Utah return showing the computation of tax based on total income before any credit for taxes in another state; and
(b) attaching a summary, prepared by the team or the team's authorized representative, indicating both the amount of the athlete's income allocated to all other states in which the athlete has participated in his team's composite return or simplified withholding, and the amount of income tax paid by the athlete to those states.
(5) The credit allowable on the Utah return for taxes paid to any other state shall be the smaller of the following:
(a) the amount of tax paid to the other state; or
(b) a percentage of the total Utah tax. This percentage is determined by dividing the total federal adjusted gross income into the amount of the federal adjusted gross income taxed in the other state.
(6) A taxpayer claiming a credit under Section 59-10-1003 shall retain records to support the credit claimed.
