Enter here and on line 35, Form 1040XN......................... 13 . Amended Nebraska Individual Income Tax Return for Tax Year 2023 This Form 1040XN can only be used when amending tax year 2023. Do not use Form 1040XN to change the amount of use tax reported (see instructions for line 46 below). Do not use Form 1040XN if you filed an original 2023 Form 1040N and are only making changes to claim or modify the school district or community college property tax credit, instead use the Form PTCX. When to File Form 1040XN is filed when: u The 2023 federal income tax return, or another state’s 2023 income tax return, is amended or corrected; or u The information on the 2023 Nebraska income tax return that was previously filed is not correct. Form 1040XN may only be filed after an original Nebraska income tax return has been filed. An amended Nebraska income tax return must be filed within 60 days after filing an amended federal income tax return. However, if the amended federal income tax return requests a credit or refund, the amended Nebraska income tax return must be filed within 60 days after receipt of proof of federal acceptance of the credit or refund. An amended Nebraska income tax return reporting a change or correction to another state’s income tax return must also be filed within 60 days after the amended income tax return is filed with the other state, or the correction becomes final. To establish timeliness of the refund claim, attach dated copies of: u The federal claim for refund; u The IRS audit determination; or u The amended federal or state income tax return. Filing 1040XN to Claim a Credit or Refund. Unless otherwise provided by statute: u When claiming a credit or refund due to overpayment, Form 1040XN must be filed – P Within three years of the due date, the actual date of filing under an approved extension, or the date the original income tax return was filed; or P Within two years from the time the tax was paid; whichever is later. u When claiming a credit or refund of a refundable credit, Form 1040XN must be filed within three years of the due date, or the actual date of filing under an approved extension of the income tax return (whichever is later) for the year in which the refundable credit was allowable. u Form 1040XN must be filed to claim a refund resulting from a federal or state change within two years and 60 days following the final determination of the change (but not more than 10 years from the due date of the original income tax return in the case of a change made by another state). u If you file an amended federal income tax return which will result in a credit or refund, do not submit the Nebraska amended income tax return until you can attach proof of federal acceptance. A hearing may be requested when filing for a refund on Form 1040XN by writing the request in the Explanation of Changes section of the form or by attaching a request for hearing to the Form 1040XN. Federal Return. A copy of the federal return and supporting schedules, as filed with the IRS, must be attached to this return. Protective Claim. When an amended federal income tax return has been filed as a protective claim, an amended Nebraska income tax return filed as a protective claim is not necessary and should not be filed. The payment of a refund by the IRS on a protective claim is a federal change that must be reported within 60 days of the refund. 1 Nebraska Net Operating Loss (NOL). When carrying back a Nebraska NOL, you must attach a copy of the completed Nebraska Net Operating Loss Worksheet, Form NOL, and a copy of either Federal Form 1045 or 1040X and all supporting schedules. The Nebraska Net Operating Loss Worksheet, Form NOL, must be completed for the loss year and retained in your records until the loss is used. When the loss is used, you must attach a Form NOL for each previously established loss year being used. Any federal NOL deduction is entered on line 1 of Schedule I, Form 1040XN, and the amount of the Nebraska NOL deduction is entered on line 7 of Schedule I. Amending an E-filed Return. E-filed income tax returns are amended by filing a paper Form 1040XN. Amounts and other information needed for completing the amended income tax return should be available on saved or printed copies of the original Form 1040N return. If help is needed in completing the amended income tax return, contact Taxpayer Assistance (see contact information). Taxpayer Assistance. Call Taxpayer Assistance at 800-742‑7474 (NE and IA), or 402-471‑5729. Visit the DOR’s website for additional information. Confidential Tax Information. Confidential tax information will be released only by a return telephone call, after the caller’s identity has been established. A representative of a taxpayer requesting confidential tax information must have a Power of Attorney, Form 33, on file with the DOR before any information will be released. An income tax return signed by the preparer is considered a limited power of attorney authorizing the DOR to release only the information contained on that tax return to the tax preparer. Specific Instructions Line 1 Federal Filing Status. The Nebraska filing status can only be changed when the federal filing status has been changed. Exceptions are made when a married, filing jointly federal income tax return was filed and the residences of the spouses are different. Spouses’ residences are different when, during all or part of the year, one spouse is a Nebraska resident and the other spouse is a nonresident at the same time. A couple with different residences may file original returns with Nebraska on either a married, filing jointly basis or a married, filing separately basis. A couple, with different residences, who filed separate Nebraska returns may elect, either before or after the original return is due, to file a married, filing jointly return in Nebraska. They are then taxed as though both were Nebraska residents during the time either was a resident. A couple with different residences who originally filed a married, filing jointly Nebraska return and wish to amend to married, filing separately returns must satisfy the following conditions: 1. Both spouses must file a separate Nebraska return with a “married, filing separately” status. u The spouse whose Social Security number was listed first on the original return must file this Amended Nebraska Individual Income Tax Return, Form 1040XN. u The spouse whose Social Security number was listed as the spouse on the original return must file a Nebraska Individual Income Tax Return, Form 1040N. 2. A copy of the actual federal married, filing jointly return and copies of federal returns recalculated on a married, filing separately basis must be attached to each of the spouse’s returns. 3. Each Nebraska return as required in “1” above, must include the full name and Social Security number of the other spouse. 4. Both spouses must sign each Nebraska return as required in “1.” Line 2 Check the appropriate boxes if you or your spouse: u Were 65 or over during the tax year; u Were blind; or u Could be claimed as a dependent on another person’s return. 2 Line 3 Type of Return Filed. Residency is determined by using Form 1040N instructions and the information guide, Determining Residency Status for Nebraska Individual Income Tax Filing. Military servicemembers and their spouses can refer to the Nebraska Income Tax for U.S. Servicemembers, Their Spouses, and Civilians Working with U.S. Forces information guide on the DOR’s website. Line 4 Nebraska Personal Exemptions. Nebraska allows a personal exemption for yourself, spouse (if filing married, filing jointly), and for each child and dependent for which you were allowed the child tax credit or dependent tax credit on the federal return. See Form 1040N instructions for more information. Line 5 Federal AGI. Enter adjusted gross income (AGI) from your federal return. Line 6 Nebraska Standard Deduction. Nebraska has its own standard deduction. If you used the standard deduction on the federal return, you must use the Nebraska standard deduction on the 1040XN. See Form 1040N instructions for more information. Lines 7 through 9 Only taxpayers who itemized deductions federally should complete these lines. Skip lines 7, 8, and 9 if you used the standard deduction on the federal return. Enter the amount of federal itemized deductions on line 7. Nebraska itemized deductions (line 9) are calculated by subtracting line 8 from line 7 (the result should not be less than -0-). For line 8, you must enter the amount of state and local income taxes reported on Federal Schedule A, line 5a even if the total amount of state and local taxes was limited to $10,000 on the Federal Schedule A, line 5e ($5,000 married, filing separately). If you entered general sales taxes on Federal Schedule A, line 5a, do not enter an amount on line 8. If the result on line 9 is less than the amount of the standard deduction you are entitled to on line 6, then enter the line 6 amount on line 10. Line 10 Enter the larger of line 6 or line 9. NOTE: You can only itemize deductions on the Nebraska return if you itemize deductions on the federal return. Line 12 Adjustments Increasing Federal AGI. Enter the amount from line 1, Nebraska Schedule I, Form 1040XN. Line 13 Adjustments Decreasing Federal AGI. Enter the amount from line 8, Nebraska Schedule I, Form 1040XN.

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!
