a) You are required to file a Federal Income Tax Return.
b) You have income subject to Georgia Income Tax but not subject to Federal Income Tax.
c) Your income exceeds standard deduction and personal exemptions.
These requirements apply as long as your legal residence is Georgia even if you are temporarily absent from the

the source and regardless of where derived. Georgia residents are allowed a credit for taxes paid to a
non-resident state.
