Utah Resident Defined
A Utah resident is an individual who: 1. Is domiciled in Utah for the entire year, even if temporarily outside of Utah for an extended period of time even years in certain situations; 2. Is domiciled in Utah for any period of time during the taxable year, but only for the duration of that period; 3. Even though domiciled outside Utah, maintains a permanent place of abode within the state and spends a total of 183 days or more of the taxable year within Utah. This does not apply to military personnel or their spouses who are in Utah on military assignment, unless they are Utah residents. All income received during the period of Utah residency is taxable in Utah, regardless of the source of that income.
Penalties and Interest
PENALTIES Utah law provides for uniform tax penalties for failure to file tax returns, failure to pay tax due, and failure to file information returns or supporting schedules. The penalty for failure to file a tax due return by the due date is the greater of $20 or 10 percent of the unpaid tax. If a tax balance is still unpaid 90 days after the due date, a second penalty of $20 or 10 percent of the unpaid tax, whichever is greater, will be added for failure to pay timely. The penalty for failure to pay tax due as reported on a timely filed return, or within 30 days of a notice of deficiency, is $20 or 10 percent of the tax due, whichever is greater. The penalty for underpayment of an extension prepayment is 2 percent per month of the unpaid tax during the extension period. If the return is not filed by the extension due date, failure to file and failure to pay penalties will apply, as if the extension had not been granted. For a list of additional penalties that may be imposed, refer to UCA §59-1-401. INTEREST (In addition to penalties due) Interest will be assessed at the rate prescribed by law from the original due date until any outstanding liability is paid in full. The interest rate for most taxes and fees administered by the Tax Commission for the 2004 calendar year is 3 percent. Form TC-15, which contains applicable interest rates, is available on the Internet or by calling or writing the Tax Commission. The Tax Commission will bill the taxpayer if any penalty or interest is owed.
Part-Year Resident Defined
A part-year resident is an individual who is domiciled in Utah for part of the year and is domiciled outside Utah for part of the year. All income received during the period of Utah residency by a part-year resident is taxable in Utah, regardless of the source of that income. Income from Utah sources is taxable in Utah during the period of nonresidency.
Nonresident Defined
A nonresident individual is one who was not in Utah or was in Utah for temporary purposes for less than 183 days during the taxable year. Income received by a nonresident from Utah sources is taxable in Utah.

However, nonresident personnel or members of their family residing in Utah with earned income from Utah sources, other than active military service pay, are required to file a Utah income tax return and pay any tax due. 3. Married couples: The spouse of a person in active military service is generally considered to have the military person's domicile and is subject to the same income tax laws and rules that apply to the military person. If one spouse is a full-year Utah resident and the other spouse is a nonresident, the couple may file separate Utah income tax returns, even though they filed a joint federal income tax return. See "Special Instructions." Native Americans 1. Residents: Native Americans who are domiciled and earn income in Utah should file a Utah income tax return. · Enrolled members of a Native American tribe or nation in Utah, who live and work on the reservation on which they are enrolled, are exempt from Utah income tax on income earned on the reservation. · Enrolled members of the Ute Tribe who work on the Uintah and Ouray Reservation and live on land removed from that reservation under Hagen v.

For purposes of determining this deduction, pensions, annuities and taxable retirement social security benefits that meet the following criteria are considered to be "retirement income:" · Paid from an annuity contract purchased under a plan, which has been contributed to by your employer and is not revocable by you, as provided under Section 404(a) of the Internal Revenue Code; · Purchased by an employee under a plan, which meets the requirements of Section 408 of the Internal Revenue Code (commonly known as "IRA" plans); · Paid by the United States, a state thereof, or the District of Columbia; · Taxable retirement social security benefits (excluding disability and survivor benefits), only if included in your federal adjusted gross income. 2. Income that does NOT qualify The following are examples of income that does not qualify for the retirement deduction: · Disbursements from deferred compensation plans, such as 401K and 457 plans; · Disability income; · Lump sum distributions from a "retirement plan" when your employment was terminated prior to meeting your employer's normal retirement requirements; · A distribution from a "retirement plan" that was terminated by your employer. · Qualified income, including disability and social security survivors benefits, received by a child on behalf of a deceased employee. · Interest on refunds from the IRS or any federal agency. For further questions about taxability of interest income, you may use the following test developed by the U. S. Supreme Court in Smith vs. Davis 323 U.S. 111 (1944) to determine if the instrument qualifies as a U. S. Government obligation. The instrument must: 1. Be a written document, 2. Bear interest, 3. Contain a binding promise by the U. S. Government to pay a specific sum on a specific date, and 4. Have congressional authorization to pledge the full faith and credit of the United States in support of the promise to pay. Only interest or dividend income from U. S. Government obligations included in your federal adjusted gross income is exempt from state income tax. Before entering an amount, subtract any related expenses claimed as deductions on your federal return, such as interest expense on money borrowed to purchase bonds or securities, or ordinary and necessary expenses paid or incurred in connection with producing exempt income. Keep all personal records, forms and worksheets to support this deduction. (72) Medical Savings Account (MSA) Utah residents only If you claimed MSA amounts on federal form 1040, you CANNOT claim MSA amounts on lines 6 or 13 of your state return. The UTAH RESIDENT account holder of an MSA should receive a "Statement of Withholding for Utah Medical Savings Account," form TC-675M, from the account administrator. Include the sum of lines 5 and 6 from form TC-675M. Keep form TC-675M with your records. (73) Utah Educational Savings Plan (UESP) Each Utah taxpayer is entitled to an income tax deduction of up to $1,435 per beneficiary for contributions to a UESP account during the tax year. A married couple can deduct up to $2,870 per beneficiary on a married filing joint return. Contributions are reported in box 1 of form TC-675H, "Statement of Contribution for Utah Educational Savings Plan." Keep form TC-675H with your records. If you have any questions about UESP, call 1-800-418-2551.

A qualified taxpayer may deduct the premiums paid by the taxpayer for health care insurance during the taxable year for the taxpayer, spouse and dependents. The deduction is subject to the requirement and limitations outlined below. REQUIREMENT To qualify, the taxpayer or taxpayer's spouse must not be eligible to participate in a plan fully or partially funded by an employer or former employer. A retiree, who participates in a plan offered or funded by a previous employer, cannot take this deduction. Pre-tax deductions from wages through employer-sponsored programs, such as a cafeteria or flex plan, cannot be claimed as a deduction.
Interest earned on U. S. Government obligations issued by an agency or instrumentality of the United States is exempt from state income tax. U. S. Government obligations include: · Treasury bills, · Notes, and · E, EE, H, HH and I bonds Income NOT exempt from Utah state income tax includes: · Interest or dividends from Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA); and

Example: A taxpayer is eligible to participate in an employer-funded plan. The plan provides coverage for the taxpayer's family, but only if the taxpayer pays an additional premium. The taxpayer elects not to have his/her family covered by the plan, choosing instead to purchase a separate, less expensive plan for his/her spouse and children. Since the taxpayer, taxpayer's spouse and children were eligible and could have been included in the employer plan, a deduction for any premiums paid is not allowed. Example: A taxpayer is retired and is eligible to participate in a plan that is funded and maintained by the employer from which he/she retired. The plan provides coverage for the taxpayer's family, but only if the taxpayer pays an additional premium. The taxpayer cannot deduct any premiums, including supplemental insurance or Medicare part B, on the state return. Example: A retired taxpayer is 65, is on Medicare and pays premiums for a Medicare B supplemental insurance plan. The taxpayer's spouse is 55 and still working. The spouse's employer offers a plan that will cover the employee and the taxpayer. The employer plan pays 80 percent of the premium costs and the employee must pay the other 20 percent. The couple elects to only cover the employed spouse under the company's plan. Since the taxpayer and spouse are both eligible under the employer plan, they cannot deduct any of the premiums paid for the company plan, Medicare B or any supplemental plan. Example: A taxpayer and spouse, who are both 65, are covered by Medicare. They pay premiums for a Medicare B supplemental insurance policy and Medicare B premiums are deducted from their social security. They can deduct the full amount of premiums paid for Medicare B and any supplemental policy. LIMITATIONS Qualified taxpayers who meet the above requirement may have their deduction limited by: 1. Premiums that are fully or partially reimbursed or funded by the federal, state or any agency or instrumentality of the federal government or state, excluding Medicare. Example: A taxpayer is retired and is not eligible to participate in an employer-provided plan. The taxpayer pays $2,000 in insurance premiums, of which the federal government reimburses $400. The taxpayer may deduct $1,600 (subtract $400 premiums that were reimbursed from $2,000 premiums paid). 2. Premiums paid for health insurance that were previously deducted on the federal return under IRC Code sections 125, 162 or 213. Example: A taxpayer is self-employed and is not eligible to participate in an employer-provided plan. The taxpayer pays $5,000 in health insurance premiums. The taxpayer deducts $3,000 on federal form 1040 as a self-employed health insurance deduction, and $500 as an itemized deduction after the 7.5% limitation. The taxpayer would be able to deduct $1,500 (subtract $3,500 premiums deducted on federal form from $5,000 premiums paid).
incometax.utah.gov Detailed instructions and examples for Health Care Insurance Premium.
(75) Long-Term Care Insurance Premium You may only deduct amounts paid for long-term care insurance policies during 2003 to the extent the amounts paid for premiums were not deducted from your federal taxable income. Long-term care insurance policy means any insurance policy designed to provide coverage: · For not less than 12 consecutive months; and · For medically necessary services provided in a setting other than an acute care unit of a hospital. The term "long-term care insurance policy" includes group and individual annuities and life insurance policies or riders that provide or supplement long-term care insurance. The term also includes a policy or rider that provides for payment of benefits based upon cognitive impairment or the loss of functional capacity. Long-term care insurance does NOT include any insurance policy that is offered primarily to provide: · Basic Medicare supplement coverage, · Basic hospital expense coverage, · Basic medical-surgical expense coverage, · Hospital confinement indemnity coverage, · Major medical expense coverage, · Disability income or related asset-protection coverage, · Accident only coverage, · Specified disease or specified accident coverage, or · Limited benefit health coverage. (76) Adoption Expenses Utah allows individuals to subtract qualifying adoption expenses in ONE of three ways: 1) the year in which the expenses are paid or incurred; 2) the year in which the adoption is finalized; or 3) a year in which the taxpayer may claim the federal adoption credit. Qualified adoption expenses may be deducted, even if the adoption process is terminated. This deduction applies to the actual qualified adoption expenses of the birth mother, the legal guardian of the birth mother (or another acting on behalf of the birth mother), or the adoptive parents. Expenses include: · Any medical and hospital expenses of the birth mother of the adopted child that are incidental to the child's birth; · Living expenses of the birth mother (if paid by the adoptive parents as part of their adoption expenses); · Actual travel costs incurred exclusively for the purpose of completing adoption arrangements; and · Any welfare agency, child placement service, legal and other fees or costs relating to the adoption. Keep all personal records, forms and worksheets to support your deduction. (77) Native American Income An enrolled member of a Native American tribe in Utah who lives and works on the reservation on which he/she is an enrolled member is exempt from Utah income tax on the reservation income. An enrolled member of the Ute tribe who works on the Uintah and Ouray Reservation and lives on land removed from that reservation under Hagen v. Utah (510 U.S. 399 (1994)) is exempt from Utah income tax on income earned on the reservation. Enter the exempt income that is included in your federal adjusted gross income. Attach a statement giving the name of the nation or tribe and the enrolled or census number.

(78) Railroad Retirement Federal law does not allow states to tax railroad retirement income, which has been reported on form RRB 1099 as Tier I or Tier II income. If railroad retirement pensions are deducted on line 12, do not deduct again on line 13. If you received pension payments under the Railroad Retirement Act and are required to report all or part of the amount received (Tier I, Tier II, or both) as income on lines 16b and/or 20b on federal form 1040, you may deduct that amount from Utah income. If other amounts are entered on lines 16b and/ or 20b, deduct only the railroad retirement amounts reported on lines 16b and/or 20b of the federal form 1040 or lines 12b and/or 14b of 1040A. (79) Other Adjustments This may include qualified equitable adjustments. Attach a schedule or explanation of any other deductions claimed. (81) Gains on Capital Transactions (UCA §59-10-114(2)) A qualified taxpayer may deduct the long-term and shortterm capital gain on a transaction if: a. The gain occurs on or after 01/01/03; b. At least 70% of the proceeds of the capital gain transaction are used to purchase qualifying stock in a Utah small business corporation within 12 months from when the gain was recognized; and c. The individual did not have an ownership interest in the Utah small business corporation that issued the qualifying stock.

As a Utah resident, you must report all of your income, regardless of where it was earned. As a part-year resident, all income received during the period of Utah residency is taxable in Utah, regardless of the source of that income. Income from Utah sources is taxable in Utah during the period of non-residency.
