To claim the credit, you must have filed a return with the other state and had a tax liability. Tax liability is the tax computed on the other state's return. It is not the tax withheld for the other state from your W-2 wages. Complete a separate worksheet for each state. Include the SC1040TC and all worksheets with your SC1040, along with a copy of your federal return and the other states' returns. Partnerships cannot claim the Credit for Taxes Paid to Another State. If a Partnership or S Corporation paid tax on your behalf, see SC Revenue Ruling #22-5, available at dor.sc.gov/policy, for more information on how to compute the credit. Line instructions Line 1: Enter your federal gross income, adjusted by applicable South Carolina additions and subtractions.

Total income from federal return received while a resident of South Carolina .......................................... A. B. Enter amounts from SC1040, line b and line d* ..................................................................................... B. C. Add line A and line B ....................................................................................................................... C. D.

Line 2: Enter the portion of the gross income included in line 1 that was taxed by the other state. Example 1: X is a full-year resident of South Carolina who works in another state. Total income from the federal return is $50,000, with no South Carolina adjustments. Wages in the other state are $20,000. This is the only income shown on the other state's return. X will enter $50,000 on line 1 and $20,000 on line 2. Example 2: Y is a full-year resident of South Carolina who works in another state. Total income from the federal return is $50,000. Wages in the other state are $20,000, and there is $10,000 of rental income from a property located in the other state. The $10,000 of rental income is not taxed by South Carolina. Y will enter $40,000 ($50,000 minus the $10,000 adjustment for out-of-state income) on line 1 and $20,000 on line 2. Only enter gross income taxed by both South Carolina and another state. Line 3: Divide line 2 by line 1. This is the percentage of income taxed by both South Carolina and the other state. Round to two decimal places, and do not enter an amount greater than 100%.

Do not enter the withholding shown on your W-2. E. Multiply line D by line C .................................................................................................................... E. Enter on SC1040TC Worksheet line 6. Example: Z's other state's return shows $5,000 in wages, $7,000 in rental income from the other state, and $8,000 from the sale of a house located in the other state ($20,000 total income). The other state's total tax liability is $546. Since only the $5,000 in wages is subject to tax in both states, Z will complete the above worksheet as follows: A. Total income taxed by the other state .................................................................................................. A. $20,000 B. Income taxed by both South Carolina and the other state ........................................................................ B. $5,000 C. Divide line B by line A ...................................................................................................................... C. 0.25 D.

Form SC1040TC is a South Carolina Individual Income Tax form. States often have dozens of even hundreds of various tax credits, which, unlike deductions, provide a dollar-for-dollar reduction of tax liability. Some common tax credits apply to many taxpayers, while others only apply to extremely specific situations. In most cases, you will have to provide evidence to show that you are eligible for the tax credit, and calculate the amount of the credit to which you are entitled.

About the Individual Income Tax

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

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