Federal Forms for Oklahoma Return

The appropriate federal forms and schedules are provided with the Oklahoma income tax return.

FS and State Code

The "FS" and "State" fields provide the ability to control which entries carry to the federal or state tax return(s).

FS State Action
blank blank Federal and home state
F blank Federal only
S blank Home state only
blank XX Federal & indicated state**
F XX Federal & indicated state
S XX Indicated state only

** On multi-state returns, this entry scheme carries the item to the federal return, the full-year resident state return, and the indicated nonresident state, but it applies to items of income only. It does not apply to state withholding, or other tax payments, footnotes, credits, or additional taxes since these items relate to only the indicated state.

The first column is the "FS" code. The word "blank" in this column indicates no entry is made in the "FS" code field. The only other possible entries are "F" or "S".

The second column is the "State" code. The word "blank" indicates no entry is made. "XX" represents an entry of a state code.

The third column specifies which returns are affected by that particular input scheme.

TSJ Codes

The use of TSJ codes are not required for the Oklahoma return.

Filing Status Optimization

Two separate tax return files can be produced from one original set of worksheets or entries. The basis for segregating the return information is the existing TS or TSJ code fields, the FSO fields, and any other taxpayer/spouse designations on the federal, state or city worksheets.

Processing options related to the Filing Status Optimization are available on federal General worksheet, Return Options section. This feature can be requested using the menu selection "File"/"Split Joint Return" on joint returns only. Once the option is selected, two additional separate returns are created that must then be accessed individually for further processing such as additional entries, corrections, review, and printing.

The Filing Status Comparison, which can be requested on federal General worksheet, Return Options section, can be used in advance to approximate the tax effect of filing separate returns and accordingly can be used as a basis for deciding which joint returns to split.

Depreciation

Oklahoma allows federal depreciation. Therefore, the use of state depreciation entries are not required. If state depreciation entries are made, the Oklahoma return may be incorrect. Oklahoma conforms to the federal bonus depreciation. No adjustments are made for depreciation differences due to bonus depreciation.

Depletion

The Oklahoma depletion adjustment is calculated from entries on the federal worksheets. The Oklahoma depletion adjustment is included on a supporting statement as an "Other Subtraction" or "Other Addition".

Percentage depletion is calculated for oil and gas entries using the 22 percent rate. For 2020 this amount is limited to 50% of the net income from the property for major oil companies. The federal quantity and 65 percent limitations are not applied, and the prior year excess percentage depletion carryover is not deducted on the Oklahoma return.

When "A" is entered in the "State Depletion Options" box on federal General worksheet, Depreciation and Depletion Options and Overrides it is assumed that federal depletion is the same as Oklahoma depletion, and no Oklahoma depletion adjustment is calculated.

When "F" is entered in the "State Depletion Options" field on federal General worksheet, Depreciation and Depletion Options and Overrides, depletion properties with an FS code of "F" are NOT used to compare federal and Oklahoma depletion amounts to determine the depletion adjustment.

Credit for Taxes Paid to Other States

The credit for taxes paid to other states by a resident of Oklahoma is calculated when the other state returns are prepared. For part-year resident returns, or for states not submitted for processing with this return, or to override this calculation, entries should be made on Oklahoma Credits worksheet, Credit for Taxes Paid section.

If a state code entered in the "State Code" field matches that of a state prepared within the return, the Oklahoma Credits worksheet, Credit for Taxes Paid section entries override the calculation for that state.

Enter "XX" in the "State Code" field when the entries for taxes paid to other states are combined as one entry. This overrides the calculation of credit for taxes paid for all states prepared. The term "Various" prints instead of the state name on Oklahoma Form 511TX.

Default: The default assumption is that all adjusted gross income from the other state, less any income calculated in out of state income, plus any loss calculated in out of state loss, is from personal services and qualifies for the credit calculation. If this assumption is not correct on any particular return, use Oklahoma Credits worksheet, Credit for Taxes Paid section to override the calculation of the credit for taxes paid to that state.
