2024 Arizona Form 140

What Is Arizona Form 140?

Arizona Form 140 is used by full-year residents to file their state income tax return. Nonresident and part-year resident filers will complete Arizona Form 140NR and Arizona Form 140PY instead. Arizona also provides two additional forms taxpayers can use to file state tax returns: Form 140EZ (Easy Form), and Form 140A (Short Form).

In general, any full year resident can file Long Form 140 rather than Easy Form 140EZ or Short Form 140A. You do not have to file the Easy Form or Short Form, for example. You must, however, use Arizona Form 140 if any of the following apply to you.

• Your Arizona taxable income is $50,000 or more.
• You received active duty, military, or reservist pay.
• You are making adjustments to income.
• You itemize deductions.
• You made estimated payments.
• You claim tax credits other than the family income tax credit, the property tax credit, or the credit for increased excise taxes.

Read the first page of any AZ Form 140 instructions book to help determine if you should file as a resident, part-year resident, or nonresident for tax year 2024. The first page of each instruction booklet will also discuss the criteria for choosing between the Easy, Short, and Long forms for tax year 2024.

Who Must File Arizona Form 140?
