SCHEDULE IN-117

Credit for Income Tax Paid to Other State or Canadian Province

(FOR FULL-YEAR AND SOME PART-YEAR VERMONT RESIDENTS)

INSTRUCTIONS

Who needs to file? Full or part-year residents who earn income in another state or Canadian province while a

Vermont resident.

A credit may be allowed against 2012 Vermont income tax for income tax paid in 2012 tax year to another state

or Canadian province on income that is taxed by both Vermont and the other taxing jurisdiction.

Supporting Documents Required: Copy of 2012 income tax return filed in the other state(s). For Canadian

province(s), copy of 2012 provincial income tax return filed, copy of Federal Form 1116 (Foreign Tax Credit) and

copy of Revenue Canada income tax return. Convert amounts on Canadian returns to U.S. dollars.

See Technical Bulletin 38 if you have capital gain, business income, or made adjustments to arrive at your

Federal Adjusted Gross Income.

More Than One State Or Canadian Province?

• Complete a Schedule IN-117 for each state or Canadian province. Do NOT combine the income and

credit of all states or provinces on one Schedule IN-117.

• Add Line 21 from each Schedule IN-117 to calculate the tax credit entry on Form IN-111, Line 23.

• Attach all Schedules IN-117 and the supporting documents required.

Line 1 Enter the name of the state or Canadian province where you paid income tax. Use the standard two-letter

abbreviation.

Line 2 Enter Adjusted Gross Income taxed in another state or Canadian province that is also subject to Vermont

income tax. The Adjusted Gross Income for the other state or Canadian province cannot exceed the amount on

Form IN-111, Line 10.

Lines 3 through 9 Adjustments for bonus depreciation, non-Vermont state and local obligations, and U.S.

government interest income are made to create the income comparable to the Adjusted Gross Income used for

Vermont income tax purposes.

Line 10 Enter the Adjusted Gross Income from IN-111, Line 10.

Lines 11 - 16 Adjustments for bonus depreciation, non-Vermont state and local obligations, and U.S. government

interest income are made to make the income comparable to the other state or Canadian province.

Line 17 Subtract Line 16 from Line 13. If Line 16 is greater than Line 13, enter zero.

Line 18 Enter the Vermont income tax calculated on Form IN-111, Line 20.

Line 19 Divide Line 9, Modified Adjusted Gross Income for the other state or Canadian province by Line 17,

Modified Adjusted Gross Income for Vermont, and multiply that result by Line 18.

Line 20 Enter the amount of income tax paid to the other state or Canadian province. This amount is income

tax paid to the state or Canadian province; not the amount of withholding. City and county tax paid to the other

state is not allowed. Credit for the Canadian provincial income tax does not include the portion used as a foreign

credit on Federal Form 1040.

Line 21 Enter the lesser of Line 19 or 20. This is your credit for income tax paid to another state or Canadian

province. If this is the only state or province, also enter on Form IN-111, Line 23. Otherwise, see instructions for

“More Than One State or Canadian Province.”
