What is Rhode Island Form RI-1040?

Rhode Island Form RI-1040 is used by full-year residents to file their state income tax return. The purpose of Form RI-1040 is to determine your tax liability for the state of Rhode Island. Nonresident and part-year resident filers will complete Rhode Island Form RI-1040NR instead.

The State of Rhode Island does not have an Easy Form (EZ) or Short Form. Read the General Instructions section of the RI-1040 instructions book to help determine if you should file as a full-year resident, part-year resident, or nonresident for tax year 2023.

Do I have to file a Rhode Island tax return?

You must file a Rhode Island tax return if you were required to file a federal income tax return. There is also an income test for those who were not required to file a federal income tax return.

You must file a Rhode Island tax return if your income exceeds the total of your standard deduction plus personal exemptions claimed. For tax year 2023, Single residents must file if their income is more than $14,700 ($10,000 + $4,700). Married residents filing jointly with no dependents must file if their income is more than $29,450 ($20,050 + $9,400).

Even if your income is below the amount specified, you may still want to file a Rhode Island tax return. You may receive a refund for the state tax amount shown on your Rhode Island W-2, for example. You may also be eligible for any Rhode Island earned income credit or other low-income related credits.

Read the Who Must File section of the RI-1040 instructions book to help determine if you should file a state income tax return for tax year 2023.
