WHO IS REQUIRED TO FILE?

  1. If you live in Oklahoma: Does your gross income earned in Oklahoma or outside of Oklahoma exceed the Oklahoma standard deduction?
  2. If you don’t live in Oklahoma: Does your gross income generated from Oklahoma meet or exceed $1,000?

 

If you answered “Yes” to either of these statements, you are required to file an Oklahoma income tax return.

Itemized Deductions

Federal itemized deductions must be adjusted by adding back state and local sales or income taxes to arrive at Oklahoma itemized deductions. Oklahoma itemized deductions will be capped at $17,000, excluding charitable contributions and medical expenses which are not subject to the $17,000 cap. If you claimed itemized deductions on your federal return, you must claim itemized deductions on your Oklahoma return. This is true even if the Oklahoma itemized deductions are less than the Oklahoma standard deduction.

 

Information for all Deductions and Exemptions
In the case of resident individuals having income from sources both within and outside the State of Oklahoma, the standard or itemized deductions and personal exemptions will be reduced to an amount which is the same portion of the total of Oklahoma adjusted gross income (AGI) to federal AGI.
