General footnote
Entries in this statement dialog proforma from the prior year. The general footnote appears as a separate item in each collation. This statement may be printed and attached to the return for informational purposes.
Use Tax
This section is used to calculate use tax and casual rental income sales tax.
Use tax will not calculate if there is no data entry in this section. Use tax may be calculated in one of three ways:
- Use the tax table in the ME1040 instructions based on Maine's adjusted gross income.
- Use the total purchases made multiple by Maine's sales tax rate of 5.5 percent.
- Use the tax table amount plus add the 5.5 percent of the amount for individual purchases that exceed $999.
Calculate use tax using table
Mark the box for taxpayer to pay use tax for purchases under $1,000 based on their Maine adjusted gross income.
Out of state purchases
Enter the amount in these fields based on how you are paying use tax. If you are not using the table based on Maine's adjusted gross income enter the total amount of purchases made during the year. If calculating tax only for those purchases that exceeded $999 to be added to the amount calculated based on Maine's adjusted gross income mark the

field and enter only the amount of purchases where each individual purchase exceeded $999 in this field.Use tax already paid to another jurisdiction
Enter the use tax actually paid to other states for the purchases included in the use tax calculation. This will reduce the tax as calculated on a dollar per dollar basis.
Rent for casual rentals of living quarters
Enter the amount of rent received on casual rental property if less than $22,222. Casual rental income greater than this amount requires the taxpayer to file a sales tax return. The amount in these fields will be multiplied by the sales tax rate and reported on Form 1040ME, Page 2. Casual rental income that exceeds the amount allowed to be claimed on the individual return will not transfer to the form.
Contributions
UltraTax CS uses the information in this section to complete Schedule CP and to answer the Maine Clean Election Fund question on Form 1040ME, Page 1. Contributions must be a minimum of five dollars per state law.
