Idaho private school tax credit

Brainstrom

Do any of my Idaho tax professionals know where to put the Idaho private school tax credit amount on the state tax return. I am not getting much help on line. I have a client that was approved for an amount and it says to put it on your tax return and if you have already filed, it says to do an amended tax return. I was not aware that it had anything to do with Individual tax returns??

Thank you in advance

It must be a line on the Form 40.  These are instructions if you qualify for the credit but don't have a filing requirement, and it tells you to put it in the line for the permanent building fund, this is for a paper filed return, but I have to guess that theres a spot for it somewhere on the Form 40 when we EFile.

Look at Line 42 of the Form 40.

Idaho has really messed things up this year. My client just received notice today that she was eligible for the credit. You would think that if you filed your return and were owed money for the school credit they would just send you a check. Just like a refund on your taxes. No real clarity here, tried to call Idaho and it is a 29 minute wait to talk to someone. IDK

Thanks for you input Lisa

It looks like you put it on line 42 of the Form 40. I have done that an attached a PDF of the credit notification received by my client. I e filed and will let you know if it goes through!!!
