Utah State Tax Commission • 210 North 1950 West • Salt Lake City, Utah 84134 • tax.utah.gov DID YOU BUY ANYTHING ONLINE LAST YEAR? YOU MIGHT OWE USE TAX! &+(&.287 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 Y S Know: • Purchases are not exempt from tax just because you make them online. • Use tax applies to any purchase 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. 9 The Fastest Refund Possible! 9 Error-free filing!

Prepare your federal tax return before your Utah return. • • Report Utah use tax for purchases during your fiscal year, using the rate chart for the calendar year in which your fiscal 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 fiscal year began. Amended Return To amend a previously-filed 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 file amended returns. Amend your return if you find 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 final 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 filed 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 operating 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. Special Utah Rules • • • Enter your fiscal year end date on TC-40, page 3, Part 2. Calculate your Utah taxpayer tax credit using the qualified dependents and standard or itemized deductions from your fiscal year federal return. Use the credit phase-out amount shown on the Utah return for the year in which your fiscal year began. Calculate non-refundable Utah credits using amounts and facts that apply to your fiscal year. For example, to claim a credit for a contribution to a my529 plan, use the amount contributed during your fiscal year, but the maximum you may take is the maximum allowed for the calendar year in which your fiscal year began. B. Enter the corrected figures 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 filing 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 filed. D. Submit the amended return with all schedules, including copies of those schedules that did not change from the original filing. 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 benefit 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 file a return within: • three years from the original return due date (plus extensions), or • two years from the payment date. For amended returns, you must file a claim for refund or credit within: • two years after you had to file 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. 7 2022 Utah TC-40 Instructions TC-40 - Line-by-Line Instructions TC-40, Page 1 NOTE: Enter your Social Security number, phone number, and ZIP+4 as straight numbers, without brackets or hyphens/ dashes. 3 – Married filing separately 4 – Head of household 5 – Qualifying widow(er) 9 – Special Instructions for Couples (see Special Instructions for Married Couples on page 29) Amended Return To amend a previously-filed return, see the instructions on page 5.

Penalty and Interest If you are filing your return or paying any tax late, you may owe penalties and interest. Use the Penalty and Interest Calculator at tap.utah.gov to calculate your penalty and interest, or follow the instructions in Pub 58, Utah Interest and Penalties (tax.utah.gov/forms). We will send you a bill if you do not pay the penalties and interest with your return or if the penalty and/or interest is calculated incorrectly. Penalties You may have to pay a penalty for not filing your return by the due date, not paying tax due on time, not pre-paying enough on an extension return, and not filing information returns or supporting schedules (UC §59-1-401). The penalties are a percentage of the unpaid tax, based on the number of days late. The penalty for underpaying an extension prepayment is 2 percent of the unpaid tax per month of the extension period. If the return is not filed by the extension due date, failure to file and pay penalties will apply as if the extension had not been granted. There is no late filing penalty (including on an amended return) if you have no tax due on the return. Interest Interest is in addition to penalties due. Calculate interest from the due date (April 18, 2023) to the date paid. The 2023 interest rate is 5.0 percent. Line 42.

Do not staple your check to your return. Remove any check stub before sending. Do not mail cash with your return. The Tax Commission is not liable for cash lost in the mail. Include the TC-547 coupon with your payment. Mail your payment, coupon and TC-40 return to the Utah State Tax Commission, 210 N 1950 W, Salt Lake City, UT 84134-0266. If filing a paper return, allow at least 90 days for your return to be processed. Payment Agreement Request A payment agreement plan cannot be set up until after the return due date and when we've processed your return. If you cannot pay the full amount you owe, you can request a payment plan. Go to tap.utah.gov and click "Apply for a waiver or a pay plan." You may also call the Tax Commission at 801-297-7703 or 1-800-662-4335 ext. 7703. If we accept your plan request we will send you an email stating the terms and conditions of the agreement. Even if we accept your request for a payment plan, we will continue to assess penalties and interest on any amount not paid by the return due date and we may still file a tax lien to secure the debt.

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!
