                                       Examples for Completing Form 140X 
 
The following three examples show how to complete Parts 1 and 2 on page 2 of Form 140X.  The examples also show how amounts 
should be entered on the proper lines on page 1 of Form 140X. 

Example 1 
Sue, a full year resident, forgot to claim the Dependent Tax Credit on her 2022 original return.  Sue is filing this amended return to claim 
that tax credit.  Sue’s son, Joe (age 18), was away at college and Sue did not claim him on her federal income tax return so that Joe could 
claim a federal education credit.  
Because Sue is adding a dependent, Sue must complete Part 1 of page 5, Sue would complete Part 1 as follows:

Part 1(A) 
Sue would complete Page 2, Part 1 (A) as follows: 
     (a)                 (b)                                      (c)                                          (d) 
  Item         Original Amount Reported           Amount to Add or Subtract                         Corrected Amount

Part 2 
Sue would complete Part 2 as follows: 
Increase to line 40b for Dependent Tax Credit.  Increased to reflect dependent not claimed on original return. 
Form 140X, Page 1 
When Sue completes page 1 of Form 140X, Sue would enter “1” on line 15b.   
When Sue filed her original return she did not claim her son as a dependent, so when she completes this Form 140X, Sue will enter $25 
(0 + $25) on Form 140X, page 1, line 40, box 40b. 
 
                                                               13

Example 2 
Jane, a full year resident, received a Form 1099INT showing interest income of $1,500 after she filed her original 2022 return.   
Jane is filing this amended return to report that interest income.   
Jane’s original return, reported a federal adjusted gross income of $50,000, which included $2,500 of interest income. 
Part 1(A) 
Jane would complete form 140X, page 2, Part 1(A) as follows: 
  (a)              (b)                                                  (c)                              (d) 
  Item             Original Amount Reported      Amount to Add or Subtract                      Corrected Amount 
  Interest 
                   $2,500                                               $1,500                           $4,000 
  Income 

Part 2 
Because the interest income would be included in Jane’s federal adjusted gross income, Jane would complete Part 2 as follows: 
Line 17, federal adjusted gross income increased by interest income reported on additional Form 1099INT. 
Form 140X, Page 1 
When Jane completes page 1 of Form 140X, Jane would include this interest income in her federal adjusted gross income reported on 
page 1, line 17.   
On Jane’s original return, she reported a federal adjusted gross income of $50,000.  On this amended return, Jane will report a federal 
adjusted gross income $51,500 ($50,000 +$1,500). 

Example 3 
Sam, a full year resident, took a subtraction from income for Arizona state retirement income on his original 2022 return for $3,500.   
Sam is filing this amended return to claim the allowable subtraction of $2,500.   
Part 1(a) 
Sam would complete Part 2(A) as follows. 
  (a)              (b)                                                  (c)                              (d)

 From              $3,500                                               ($1,000)                         $2,500 
 Income 

Part 2 
Sam would complete Part 2 as follows: 
Line 25, subtractions from income decreased to reflect the allowable subtraction for Arizona state retirement claimed on original return. 
Form 140X, Page 1 
When Sam completes page 1 of Form 140X, Sam would include $2,500 ($3,500 - $1,000) on line 25.
