Pass-Through Entity Tax (PTET) (LB 754). A partnership or S corporation may elect to be

Important Information for All Filers
Purpose. The instructions in this booklet provide guidance in completing the most common
Nebraska corporation income tax forms and schedules. This booklet is intended to be useful to
the greatest number of taxpayers. Nothing in these instructions supersedes, alters, or otherwise
changes any provisions of the Nebraska tax code, regulations, rulings, or court decisions.
We encourage the preparer of any Corporation Income Tax Return, Form 1120N, to review
applicable Nebraska law regarding any issue that may have a material effect on this return.
Nebraska law and other useful information may be found at revenue.nebraska.gov.
Income Subject to Nebraska Taxation. Nebraska income tax applies to the portion of the
corporate taxpayer’s taxable income derived from or attributable to sources within Nebraska.
A corporate taxpayer that is subject to tax in another state must apportion its income, unless
approval has been granted by the Tax Commissioner for an alternative method prior to
ling the return.
If a corporate taxpayer engaged in business in Nebraska is not subject to tax in another state,
its entire taxable income must be reported to Nebraska.
Combined Return. When a group of corporations conducts a unitary business, a single combined
return must be led reporting the income of the entire group. A unitary group engaged in
business within and without Nebraska will determine its Nebraska income using a single
factor, sales only, apportionment formula. See the Nebraska Schedule I — Apportionment
for Multistate Business instructions for additional information.
Enter All Amounts as Whole Dollars. Do not include cents on the return or schedules. Do not
change the pre-printed zeros in the cents column of the Form 1120N or schedules. Round
any amount from 50 cents to 99 cents to the next higher dollar. Round any amount less than
50 cents to the next lower dollar.
Penalties and Interest. Either or both may be imposed under the following conditions:
u Failing to le a return and pay the tax due on or before the due date;
u Failing to pay the tax due on or before the due date;
u Failing to le an amended Nebraska income tax return when required;
u Preparing or ling a fraudulent income tax return; or
u Understating income on an income tax return.
2
revenue .nebraska.gov
Filing a false or fraudulent Nebraska return is subject to penalty, even if the amounts reported
are taken from your federal return. Unpaid tax is subject to interest at the statutory rate of
5% from the original due date to the date the tax is paid. See Revenue Ruling 99-22-1 for
applicable interest rates.
Reporting Changes or Corrections. If information on a Nebraska corporation income tax
return previously led is incorrect, an Amended Nebraska Corporation Income Tax Return,
Form 1120XN, must be led. When ling an amended return, remember:
u Changes made by the IRS or another state must be reported to DOR within 60 days;and
u You must attach a copy of the related federal or other state amended return and all
related schedules or other documentation to explain the changes shown on the amended
Nebraska return.
Any corporation ling an amended return with the IRS, resulting in a credit or refund, must
report the change or correction within 60 days after receiving proof that the IRS accepted the
federal return. The Nebraska amended return must include documentation showing that the
IRS accepted the changes made on the federal return.
Corporate taxpayers are required to provide DOR with a copy of every executed Federal
Form872, Consent to Extend the Time to Assess Tax; Form 872-A, Special Consent to
Extend the Time to Assess Tax; or any other federal form used to extend the time to assess
income taxes. If copies of these federal forms are not provided to DOR within 30 days after
they are executed, DOR may issue a notice of deciency determination within one year after
discovery of the extension by DOR and may limit the time period for which interest is paid
on a refund.
Nebraska Extension of Time. An extension to le may only be obtained by:
u Attaching a copy of a timely-led Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File
Certain Business Income Tax, Information, and Other Returns, Federal Form 7004,
to the Nebraska return when led;
u Attaching a schedule to the Nebraska return listing the federal conrmation number
and providing an explanation that the electronic request for automatic federal extension
was not denied; or
u Filing a Nebraska Application for Extension of Time to File Corporation, Fiduciary,
or Partnership Return, Form 7004N, on or before the due date of the return, when you
need to make a tentative Nebraska payment or when a federal extension is not being
requested. When a federal extension of time has been granted, and additional time is
necessary to le the Nebraska return, the Nebraska Form 7004N must be led on or
before the date the federal extension expires. Remember to attach proof of the federal
extension to the Form 7004N.
Failure to attach the applicable extension document may result in a late ling penalty. An
extension of time only extends the date to le the return. It does not extend the due date
to pay the tax. Any tax not paid by the original due date is subject to interest. By timely
requesting an extension of time to le your federal return using the Federal Form 7004, you
are granted an automatic Nebraska extension for the same number of months granted by the
IRS. When a federal extension of time has been granted and additional time is necessary to
le the Nebraska return, the Nebraska Form7004N must be led on or before the date the
federal extension expires. An extension of time cannot exceed a total of seven months after
the original due date of the return.
Accounting Methods. The accounting method used for federal income tax purposes must be
used for Nebraska income tax purposes. A taxpayer may not change the accounting method
used to report income in prior years, unless the change is approved by the IRS. A copy of this
approval must accompany the rst return that shows the change in the method of accounting.
Federal Return. A copy of the federal return and supporting schedules, as led with the IRS,
must be attached to this return. This includes, at a minimum, a copy of the rst ve pages,
ScheduleD, Form 4797, and other supporting schedules of the Federal Form 1120. If a
consolidated federal return is led, a copy of the consolidating schedules or workpapers for
income and expenses, cost of goods sold, and balance sheets, as well as the Afliations Schedule,
Form851, must also be attached. Provide copies of schedules and other information that
3
revenue .nebraska.gov
support the numbers reported on the Nebraska return. Other voluminous information that
is part of the federal return led, but that is not directly related to the Nebraska reporting,
may be kept by the taxpayer, but must be made available upon request. A pro-forma federal
return is not acceptable. The Nebraska return is based upon the actual federal return as led
or prepared for ling.
Estimated Income Tax Payments. Estimated income tax payments must be made by every
corporation subject to taxation under the IRC, with income derived from Nebraska, if the
Nebraska income tax liability can reasonably be expected to exceed allowable credits by $400
or more. For additional information, see the 2024 Nebraska Corporation Estimated Income
Tax Payment Voucher Booklet.
Underpayment of Estimated Income Tax Penalty. A corporation may owe a penalty if the
amount of tax due, after allowable credits, is $400 or more.
If the amount of tax due is $400 or more, the corporation must complete a Corporation
Underpayment of Estimated Income Tax, Form 2220N, to calculate any applicable penalty.
A corporation may reduce or eliminate the penalty by using the annualized income or adjusted
seasonal installment method. To use one or both of these methods to calculate one or more
required installments, recalculate (and attach) the Federal Form 2220, Schedule A, “Adjusted
Seasonal Installment Method and Annualized Income Installment Method” using Nebraska
income and other Nebraska amounts. Enter the corresponding amount from the recalculated
Federal Schedule A on the appropriate lines of the Form 2220N.
Adjustment of Overpayment of Estimated Income Tax. A corporation that overpaid estimated
income tax must use the Corporation Application for Adjustment of Overpayment of Estimated
Income Tax, Form 4466N, to apply for refund of the overpayment when the overpayment is:
u At least 10% more than the expected tax liability calculated on the Form 4466N; and
u At least $500.
Form 4466N must be led by the 15th day of the third month after the end of the tax year
and before the corporation les its corporation income tax return. A Form 4466N led after
this date will not be considered. An extension of time to le the corporation income tax return
will not extend the time for ling Form 4466N.
Use Tax A corporation may be subject to use tax. A corporation owes use tax when the proper sales
tax has not been paid on purchases delivered into Nebraska. This often occurs when purchases
are made from out-of-state, mail order, or Internet sellers. Use tax is also due when items
purchased for resale are withdrawn from inventory for business or personal use.
Example 1.
The corporation purchased a computer from a seller in South Dakota over the Internet
for $1,570 plus $30 shipping and handling charges. Both charges are taxable. The
computer is shipped to the corporation in Scottsbluff, Nebraska and no tax is charged
or collected by the seller. The state tax is $88 ($1,600 X 5.5%) and the local tax is $24
($1,600 X 1.5%). The total use tax owed is $112 ($88 + $24 = $112).
Example 2.
A repair shop in Scottsbluff, Nebraska provides motor vehicle repair service. The repair
shop also owns a tow truck used for towing customers’ motor vehicles needing repair.
The shop purchases oil and oil lters tax exempt for resale using the Nebraska Resale
or Exempt Sale Certicate, Form 13. When oil and oil lters are removed from sales
tax exempt inventory and used to change the oil in the business-owned tow truck, state
and local use tax is due on the cost of the oil and oil lters.
For additional information, see the Nebraska Use Tax Information Guide.
Purpose of Form The Nebraska Corporation Income Tax Return, Form 1120N, is used to report income,
gains, losses, deductions, and credits, and to calculate the income tax liability of the
corporate taxpayer.

year beginning in 2023. Space is provided at the top of the return to enter the beginning and
ending dates for short-period or scal-year lers. The taxable year for Nebraska must be the
same as the taxable year used for the federal income tax return.
If a corporation changes its federal taxable year, it must also change its Nebraska taxable
year. A copy of the approval from the IRS to change accounting periods must accompany
the rst return that shows the change.

principal business activity in Nebraska. Carefully review the business classication codes
before you select one.
Principal Business Activity in Nebraska. Enter the principal business activity of the corporation
from the Business Classication Code listing.
Federal ID Number. Enter the Federal ID number assigned to the corporation by the IRS.
5
revenue .nebraska.gov
Nebraska ID Number. Enter the Nebraska ID number assigned to the corporation by DOR.
Corporations that do not have a Nebraska state ID for corporate income tax should e-le
using their Nebraska income tax withholding or sales tax number. The prex (for example, 24-)
is not part of the state ID number and should not be included in the number. Corporations
that do not have an existing Nebraska state ID, should apply using DOR’s Online Nebraska
Tax Application.
Final Return. Check the “Final Return” box if the corporation will not le a Nebraska
corporate return after the 2023 tax year. This may occur when the corporation ceases to
exist due to dissolution or merger, or when the corporation will be included in a new unitary
group of corporations led under a different Nebraska ID number.
Corporation Filing Status. All taxpayers must complete this portion of the return and answer
all questions applicable to the corporation’s status.
Question A. Check “Yes” if any of the following conditions apply:
u The corporation was included in a federal consolidated return;
u The corporation owns 50% or more of another corporation; or
u The corporation is owned at least 50% by another corporation.
If none of the above conditions apply, check “No” and skip questions B, C, and D.
Question B. Check “Yes” if this return includes the income, deductions, or credits of all
corporations with common ownership.
Check “No” if one or more of the corporations with common ownership are not included
in this return.
Question C. Check “Yes” if a return led in any other state included the income, deductions,
or credits of more than one corporation.
Check “No” if the returns led in all other states included only your corporation.
Question D. Under Nebraska law, a unitary group generally encompasses all corporations
included in the federal consolidated income tax return. Therefore, only under extremely unusual
circumstances may a corporation compute its Nebraska liability using the “separate report
by a member of a controlled group of corporations” method. Documentation supporting
the separate company ling should be attached to the Nebraska return when led. This
documentation must show that the corporation is not part of a single economic unit as dened
in section .08 of Corporate Income Tax Regulation 24-058, Denitions.
Line 1 Federal Gross Sales or Receipts, Less Returns and Allowances. Enter the amount of federal
gross sales or receipts reported on Federal Form 1120, less returns and allowances. If the
corporate taxpayer is ling a combined Form 1120N, enter the amount of combined gross
receipts or sales less returns and allowances from Nebraska Schedule IV.
Line 2 Federal Taxable Income (FTI). Enter the federal taxable income. A unitary group must enter
the amount from line 30, Nebraska Schedule IV.

revenue .nebraska.gov
Line 7 Nebraska Capital Loss Carryover. Enter the allowable Nebraska capital loss carryover.
For a multistate taxpayer, a Nebraska capital loss consists of the loss on property that was
used by the unitary business that did business in Nebraska, multiplied by the Nebraska
apportionment factor for the year of the loss. If the corporate taxpayer reported a capital
loss on corporate stock or other assets, the income from which was not previously treated as
income apportionable to Nebraska, the loss cannot be treated as a Nebraska loss. Capital loss
carryovers may only be deducted to the extent of capital gains in the year of the deduction.
Attach a detailed schedule that shows the computation of the capital loss carryover along
with copies of the applicable Federal Schedule D to substantiate the Federal capital (loss)/
gain. A Nebraska capital loss may only be carried forward, and only for a maximum period of
ve tax years.
Line 8 Nebraska Taxable Income After Nebraska Capital Loss Carryover. Enter line 6 minus line7.
Line 9 Nebraska Net Operating Loss Carryover. Enter the allowable Nebraska net operating loss
(NOL) carryover. The amount allowable is based on the loss previously reported to Nebraska,
and is not based on a percentage of the federal carryover. Any net operating loss can only
be carried forward. An NOL incurred in tax years beginning on and after January 1, 2014,
may be carried forward for a maximum period of 20 taxyears. Nebraska imposes limitations
on the use of a NOL carryforward after certain reorganizations and mergers, when a NOL
incurred in years after 2017 is carried forward to a year after 2020, and when a corporation
with a Nebraska NOL carryforward becomes a member of a unitary group. For additional
information, see Corporate Income Tax Regulation 24-060, Net Operating Losses and Capital
Losses. If any of the limitations apply to the NOL carryforward reported on this return,
attach a schedule showing the computation of the allowablecarryforward.
Attach a Nebraska Corporation Net Operating Loss Worksheet showing the calculation of
the amount of Nebraska net operating loss carryover. If the Nebraska NOL carryforward
was increased due to reclassifying part or all of the charitable contribution carryforward,
details of the reclassication and the NOL modication must be provided.
Line 10 Net Nebraska Taxable Income. Enter line 8 minus line 9.
Line 11 Nebraska Tax. Use the following tax rate schedule to calculate the amount of total Nebraska
tax to enter on line 11.

Line 20 Total Adjustments Decreasing FTI. Enter total adjustments here and on line 4, Form 1120N.

revenue .nebraska.gov
Purpose. The Nebraska Schedule I is used to determine the amount of Nebraska source
income (Form 1120N, line 6, Nebraska taxable income before Nebraska carryovers) received
by a corporation that derives income from within and without Nebraska.
Nebraska source income is determined by apportioning the corporate income using a single,
sales only factor. Apportionment refers to the division of income between states by the use
of a formula containing one or more apportionment factors.
Sales Factor. The sales factor is a fraction. The numerator is the total sales of the corporate
taxpayer in Nebraska during the taxable year. The denominator is the total sales of the
corporate taxpayer everywhere during the taxable year. Total sales include gross sales of
real and tangible personal property, less returns and allowances, and all other items of gross
receipts, except income for the discharge of indebtedness, amounts received from hedging
transactions involving intangible assets, and net gains from marketable securities held for
investment. The sales factor on this schedule is rounded to six decimal places. It is entered
as a percentage.
When a corporate taxpayer consists of two or more corporations engaged in a unitary
business, a part of which is conducted in Nebraska, the income of the corporate taxpayer
apportioned to Nebraska is determined by applying the ratio of the corporate taxpayer’s
sales in Nebraska to the sales of the entire unitary group. The corporate taxpayer’s sales
in Nebraska should include only those sales made by members of the unitary group with
nexus in this state. Each corporate taxpayer must le one income tax return for the entire
group. The return will include all corporations in the unitary business. Any corporation that
is required, or has received permission, to use an alternative apportionment formula, may
only be included in a return with other corporations using the same apportionment formula.
For tax years beginning January 1, 2014 or after, a corporation may no longer use the costs
of performance method of apportioning sales other than sales of tangible personal property
except for a corporation operating as a communications company. For additional information,
see the Nebraska Apportionment Factor - Sales or Gross Receipts section.
A corporation using an alternative method of apportionment must attach a copy of the
Tax Commissioner’s prior written approval of the alternative method. The alternative
apportionment factor computation must be included. Enter the factor on line 2, Nebraska
Schedule I.
NOTE: Approval of an alternative method of apportionment is rare.
Intercompany sales between unitary corporations using the combined income approach are
excluded from the sales factor.
If the corporate taxpayer is a partner in a partnership or joint venture, see Business Entity
Regulation 24-315, Sales Factor; Business Entities As Owners in a Partnership or Joint Venture.
A corporate taxpayer that operates a trucking business and has income from both within
and without this state, must compute its sales factor in accordance with Business Income
Tax Regulation 24-343, Special Apportionment Rules; All Tax Years; Trucking Companies.
The method of computing the sales factor must be consistent with prior tax years and with the
corporate taxpayer’s lings in other states. If the corporation modies the basis for including
or excluding gross receipts in the sales factor used in returns for prior years, the 2023 return
must disclose the nature and extent of the modication.
If the corporation les returns with other states that are not uniform in the inclusion or
exclusion of gross receipts, the Form 1120N led with DOR must disclose the nature and
extent of the variance.

Nebraska Schedule II Instructions
Foreign Dividend and Special Foreign Tax Credit Deduction
Purpose. The Nebraska Schedule II is used to calculate the deduction for dividends included
in federal taxable income (line 30, Federal Form 1120) from corporations whose dividends do
not qualify for the dividends received deduction under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) § 243.
In addition, an adjustment is allowed for income that is taxed by a foreign country, or one
of its political subdivisions, at a rate in excess of the maximum federal corporate tax rate.
The adjustment can be made for each foreign country or group of foreign countries. The
amount of federal taxable income from operations within a foreign taxing jurisdiction must
be reduced by the amount of taxes actually paid to the foreign jurisdiction that are not
deductible solely because the foreign tax credit was elected on the federal income tax return.
The amount of after-tax income is then divided by one minus the maximum tax rate for
corporations in the IRC. The result of this calculation is subtracted from the amount of
federal taxable income from foreign operations.
The difference is reported in the total adjustments decreasing FTI computed on Nebraska
ScheduleA, and is included as an adjustment to federal taxable income on line 4, Form 1120N.
Schedule C, Federal Form 1120, and Parts A and B of Federal Form 1118 must be attached.
Line 1 Dividends From Foreign Corporations and Certain FSCs Subject to the IRC § 245 Deduction.

Who May File. A corporation (C corporation and S corporation), duciary, partnership, or limited liability company
making a tentative tax payment, and/or wanting more time to le a Nebraska tax return, must le a Nebraska Application for
Extension of Time, Form 7004N. The Form 7004N must be led even if a tentative income tax payment is made electronically.
If you have led for a federal extension and are not making a tentative income tax payment to Nebraska, you do not need to
complete this application. When your Nebraska income tax return is led, you must attach a copy of the Federal Form 7004
led with the IRS, or a copy of the approved federal extension. If a federal extension of time has been granted, the ling date
for Forms 1120N, 1120-SN, and 1065N is automatically extended for the same period. If a federal extension of time has been
granted to an estate or trust, the ling date for Form 1041N is automatically extended for six months.
Corporations. When a federal extension of time has been granted and additional time is necessary to le a Nebraska
corporation income tax return, le Form 7004N on or before the date the federal extension expires. Attach a copy of the
Federal Form 7004 led with the IRS, or a copy of the approved federal extension. A maximum of a seven-month extension
beyond the original due date of the corporation income tax return is allowed for Nebraska.
Partnerships, Estates, and Trusts. Nebraska will only allow partnerships an extension of time up to the maximum
number of months provided by the IRS. Nebraska will allow estates and trusts an extension of up to six months. No additional
Nebraska extension will be granted.
When to File. Form 7004N must be led on or before the due date of the original return. Corporations may also le
Form 7004N on or before the date that a federal extension expires.
Where to File. Mail Form 7004N to the Nebraska Department of Revenue, PO Box 94818, Lincoln, Nebraska 68509-4818.

recipients, CDAA credit, and Nebraska employer tax credit for employing convicted felons.

through entity tax paid by a partnership in which you hold an ownership interest.
Amount of Payment. Payment of the amount shown on line 11 must be remitted either with this form or electronically
using one of the electronic payment options identied below.
Mandates of Electronic Payment. Some entities are required to make their payments (tax, penalty, and interest)
electronically. For mandate purposes, all of the electronic payment options listed below satisfy the mandate requirement.
All entities are encouraged to make their payments electronically.
Electronic Payment Options
Nebraska e-pay. Nebraska e-pay is the Nebraska Department of Revenue's (DOR's) web-based electronic payment
system. You enter your payment and bank account information, and choose a date (up to a year in advance) to have
your account debited. You will receive an email conrmation for each payment scheduled.
ACH Credit. You (or your bank) create an electronic le in the appropriate ACH le format. It is submitted to the
Federal Reserve and instructs your bank to “credit” the state’s bank account.
Nebraska Tele-pay. Nebraska Tele-pay is the DOR's phone-based electronic payment system. Call 800-232-0057,
enter your payment and bank account information, and choose a date (up to a year in advance) to have your account
debited. You will receive a conrmation number at the end of your call.
Credit Card (Corporations only). Secure credit card payments can be initiated through ACI Payments, Inc.
at acipayonline.com or via phone at 800-272-9829. Eligible credit cards include American Express, Discover,
MasterCard, and VISA. A convenience fee is charged to the card you use. This fee is paid to the credit card vendor,
not the state, and will appear on your credit card statement separately from the payment made to the DOR. At the end
of your transaction, you will be given a conrmation number. Keep this number for your records. [If you are making
your credit card payment by phone, you will need to provide the Nebraska Jurisdiction Code, which is 3700.]
Check or Money Order. If you are not using one of the electronic payment options described above, include a check
or money order payable to the “Nebraska Department of Revenue.” Checks written to the DOR may be presented for
payment electronically.
Corporate Unitary Group. Members of a unitary group ling a single return using the combined income approach should
only request one extension for the entire group. The name, address, Federal ID number, and Nebraska ID number of each
corporation included in the combined return must be listed on Form 7004N.
Terminating the Extension. The DOR may, at any time, terminate a C corporation’s extension of time by mailing
the taxpayer a notice of termination and allowing ten days from the date of the termination notice to le the Nebraska
corporate return.
Taxpayer Notication. The DOR will notify the applicant if this request for extension is denied. The notice will be sent
to the address entered on Form 7004N. No notice will be sent with respect to approved applications for an extension of
time to le a return.
Signatures. This application must be signed by a corporate ocer, duciary, partner, member, a person currently enrolled
to practice before the IRS, or an attorney or certied public accountant qualied to practice before the IRS. If the taxpayer
authorizes any other person to sign this application, there must be a power of attorney on le with the DOR.
Email. By entering an email address, the taxpayer acknowledges that the DOR may contact the taxpayer by email.
The taxpayer accepts any risk to condentiality associated with this method of communication. The DOR will send all
condential information by secure email or the State of Nebraska’s le share system. If you do not wish to be contacted by
email, write “Opt Out” on the line labeled “email address.”

Instructions
If you paid Nebraska property taxes yourself directly or through your monthly payments into escrow, use this form
to claim the property tax credit. Look up your parcel in the Nebraska Property Tax Look-up Tool (Look-up Tool)
to complete line3, multiply line 3a and 3b by .30 and .55 respectively and enter the result on lines 1 and 2 respectively.
Purpose. The Nebraska Property Tax Credit, Form PTC, is used to identify parcels and compute a tax credit for
Nebraska school district and community college property taxes (qualied property taxes) paid.
Nebraska Property Tax Look-up Tool. You can determine the amount of qualied property taxes paid on a parcel
in the 2023 calendar year, by using the Nebraska Department of Revenue’s (DOR’s) Nebraska Property Tax Look-
up Tool. DOR strongly recommends using this Look-up tool.
Qualied Property Taxes Paid. The qualied property taxes are paid on the date received by the county treasurer.
The date qualied property taxes were received is affected by the followingrules.
1. Mortgage Escrow Accounts. When your payment to a mortgage company includes an escrow for property
taxes, the date the county treasurer receives payment from the escrow account is the date the qualied
property taxes were paid;
2. Parcel Sales – Property Taxes Funded. When you fund property taxes at closing, the related qualied property
taxes were paid when received by the county treasurer. You may claim the allowable credit only for the
calendar year that the county received the money from the escrow agent;
3. Parcel Sales – Property Taxes Reimbursed. When the buyer reimburses the seller for property taxes that
were already paid, the buyer cannot take the credit on any portion of the reimbursement because the county
treasurer already received the taxes paid by the seller.
4. County Treasurer Escrow Accounts. When you make partial property tax payments that are held in escrow by
the county treasurer, qualied property taxes are paid when applied to the parcel in the records of the county
treasurer.
5. Tax Sale Certicate. The qualied property taxes are received by the county treasurer when collected from
the person that purchased the tax sale certicate. Persons who redeem the tax certicate are repaying a loan
to obtain a lien release. The redeemer cannot take the credit for the redemption.
The DOR obtains property tax data from each county treasurer. That data includes the amount of property taxes
received during a calendar year. The DOR will use the county treasurer receipt data, unless you can show the county
treasurer’s data is incorrect.
Limitation on Qualied Property Taxes. Qualied property taxes paid do not include property taxes levied for
bonded indebtedness, taxes levied as a result of an override of the limits on property tax levies approved byvoters,
or credits applied to the property taxes levied. The Look-up Tool automatically takes these items into account in
computing the qualied property taxes paid.
Qualied property taxes paid also do not include property taxes that were paid after September 2, 2023 and were 5
years or more delinquent at the time of payment.
Enter All Qualied Property Tax Amounts as Whole Dollars. Round any amount from 50 cents to 99 cents to
the next higher dollar. Round any amount less than 50 cents to the next lower dollar.
Records. All taxpayers must retain records for at least three years after ling the tax return claiming the credit
for qualied property taxes paid. Taxpayers using the DOR’s Look-up Tool should print or save the information
provided by the Look-up Tool.
Who Must File. Form PTC must be led by the individual, corporation, partnership, LLC, duciary, or nancial
institution that paid the tax and is claiming the credit.
When and Where to File. Form PTC must be led with the Nebraska income tax or nancial institution tax return
on which the credit is claimed.
How to Complete the Form PTC
Taxpayers claiming the credit should complete Part B before completing Part A. This form can be completed quickly
and easily using the Look-up Tool.
Part A – Computation of the Credit
Part A is used to compute the credit for qualied property taxes paid and reported in Part B.
Part B – School District and Community College Property Taxes Paid in 2023
Part B is used by individuals, C corporations, S corporations, partnerships, LLCs, nancial institutions, and duciaries
that paid qualied property taxes in 2023.
Fiscal Year and Short Year Filers. The credit may be claimed in the rst income tax year that begins in the
calendar year the qualied property taxes were paid.
Fiscal Year Filers. Taxpayer’s with a scal year beginning in 2023 and ending in 2024 may complete Part B for
qualied property taxes paid during the entire 2023 calendar year. The credit claimed in this scal year cannot
include any qualied property taxes paid in 2024.
Short Year Filers. Taxpayers with a short period beginning in 2023 and ending in 2024. If this is the rst short
year beginning in 2023, complete Part B for qualied property taxes paid during the entire 2023 calendaryear.
Taxpayers with a short period beginning and ending in 2023. If this is the rst short year beginning in 2023,
complete Part B for the qualied property taxes paid during the entire 2023 calendar year. You may have to le
an extension to be sure that the information will be available in Look-up Tool at the time you le the rst short
year return. Taxpayers ling for the second short period beginning in 2023 cannot claim the credit on the second
short periodreturn.

2023. A separate entry must also be made for each property tax year for which qualied property taxes were paid in
2023. If Part B does not have enough rows to include all the parcels or years for which you paid qualied property
taxes, attach a schedule in the same format as Part B.
Example 1. Joe Pear owns two parcels in Lancaster County and paid property taxes on those parcels for the 2022 and
2023 property tax year during the 2023 calendar year. Joe owned parcel 17-12-345-678-000 for the entire 2023 calendar
year and purchased parcel 17-87-654-321-000 on July 1, 2022. The total property taxes paid were:
Joe used the Property Tax Look-up Tool to compute the qualied property taxes he paid. Joe entered in the Look-up
Tool the total property taxes he paid for the “Actual payments made by Joe Pear to Lancaster County Treasurer in
calendar year 2023.” Part B of Form PTC should be completed as follows:
Property Tax Year. Enter the property tax year for which the qualied property taxes were levied. Most taxpayers
pay their property taxes in the year after the taxes were levied. If more than one year of property taxes were paid in
the 2023 calendar year, a separate entry must be made for each property tax year. See example 1 above.
Nebraska County Number. Enter the number assigned to the county where the parcel is located. This number is
provided by the Look-up Tool or may be found on the County Parcel ID Search. This number is not the same as the
county number used for license plates. Do not enter the county number from a license plate.
Parcel ID Number. Enter the parcel ID number assigned by the county assessor to the parcel. This number may be
found on the Real Estate Tax Statement issued by the county treasurer where the parcel is located. The parcel ID
number may also be found using the Look-up Tool. Some counties use the term “property ID” rather than “parcel
ID”. Parcel ID numbers assigned by Lancaster County include dashes. The parcel ID number entered on Form PTC
for parcels located in Lancaster County must include the dashes. The parcel ID numbers for the other 92 counties
have either 9 or 10 digits and no dashes.
Qualied Property Taxes Paid. Enter in the appropriate column the amount of qualied property taxes you paid
on the parcel during the 2023 calendar year. This amount may be computed using the Look-up Tool or the taxpayer’s
records. Those records include, but are not be limited to, the Real Estate Tax Statement issued by the county treasurer
where the parcel is located.
