2024 Nebraska Form 1040N

What Is Nebraska Form 1040N?

Nebraska Form 1040N is used by full-year residents to file their state individual income tax return. The purpose of Form 1040N is to calculate how much Nebraska income tax you owe for the year. Part-year residents and nonresidents generally file Form 1040N as well, but they attach Schedule III and others if they have Nebraska-sourced income. Nebraska does not currently offer a separate short form for individuals. Read the Type of Return section of the 2024 Nebraska Form 1040N instructions to confirm how you should file based on your residency status.

Who Must File Nebraska Form 1040N?

If you are a full-year or part-year Nebraska resident who is required to file a federal income tax return, you typically must file Form 1040N. You may also need to file if your Nebraska gross income exceeds the thresholds specified in the 2024 1040N instructions, depending on your filing status.

Even if you are below the threshold, it can be worthwhile to file if you had Nebraska income tax withheld and might receive a refund. Nebraska offers certain tax credits, such as the Nebraska Earned Income Credit (which is a percentage of the federal EITC) and a School District Property Tax Credit. Review the credits section of the 2024 1040N instructions to see if you qualify for these or other credits.
