      your tax obligation on Worksheet located on the reverse side of the tax return.  If you had earned income NOT taxed by Delaware,
      this income would be subject to the earned income tax effective in your district and must be shown separately on the Local 
      Earned Income Tax Return. You may not use any tax paid to another state as credit on earnings outside the other state.
