Questions about a Tax Credit

• What is a tax credit?



A tax credit is a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the actual tax owed. For example, if you owe $800 in state income taxes and you donate $400 to a public school for extracurricular activities, you may subtract the $400 from your tax bill and pay the state just $400.


• Who is eligible?



This tax credit is available to all Arizona individual taxpayers regardless of whether or not they have children in school. An individual can contribute and receive a tax credit for any amount up to $200, or a couple filing jointly can contribute up to $400.


• Can I designate where I want my money to go?



Yes, you can say where you want your donation to go. You can choose your child's school or an extracurricular activity that they participate in. You can choose a school based on student poverty, type of activity, or location. If you want to donate to a school or an activity where not all parents can afford to contribute, you may do this.


• Do I have to live within the Apache Junction Public School District?



No, any individual who pays Arizona State income tax can donate.
