Overview

Use this screen to complete Forms 40, Idaho Individual Income Tax Return and Form 43, Idaho Part-Year Resident & Nonresident Income Tax Return. If information transferred from UltraTax/1040 doesn’t require additional data or coding, UltraTax/1040-ID shows the information on the form only, not in the input screen.
Federal-to-state input screen and asset module data transfer
If information is transferred from federal input screens or from the asset module to a state input screen, the application displays the transferred data in blue.
If necessary, you can overrule the transferred amount by entering the amount in the field. The application then displays the new amount in black.
note
  • When you overrule a transferred amount, the application doesn't replace that amount with subsequent federal-to-state or asset module data transfers.
  • To delete the overruled amount and restore the original transferred amount, right-click the field and select
    Delete overrule
    or simply enter the original amount in the field.
  • To verify the accuracy of the overruled amount, right-click the field and select
    Acknowledge overruled data
    . The application then turns off the acknowledge functionality from the right-click menu. To restore the original amount later, you will need to enter it manually.
  • You can set a user preference to select fields for which you overruled the transferred amounts and to list all overruled amounts in the
    Diagnostics
    window.

Standard or itemized deduction (Force)
UltraTax CS calculates whether it would be more beneficial to use the standard deduction or the itemized deductions. Use this field to force the option if it's different from the calculated deduction.
Reduction of allowable federal mortgage interest or foreign tax credits (Force)
UltraTax CS calculates the disallowed portion of mortgage interest used to calculate federal Form 8396 when the federal return uses the itemized deduction method. This reduced portion of the mortgage interest on the federal Schedule A is added to the Idaho itemized deduction amount on the Idaho Itemized Deduction Worksheet, line 2.
If foreign taxes paid are used to calculate the foreign tax credit on federal Form 1116, the foreign taxes that could have been used on the federal Schedule A are added to the itemized deductions taken on the Idaho return and the Idaho Itemized Deduction Worksheet, line 2.
Use this field to change the amount of disallowed mortgage interest or foreign taxes used in the total itemized deduction on the Idaho return.
