$ave up to $400* on your Arizona State Taxes & Save Homeless Youth

With Arizona's Working Poor Tax Credit you can receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit, up to $400*, on your state income taxes while helping homeless youth — at no additional cost to you. In fact, you may earn a return on your investment if you qualify!

How Does it Work?
  • Establish a baseline year and amount for charitable deductions (as early as 1996). The credit is figured on the amount given over and above the baseline amount.
  • Make a tax-deductible donation to HomeBase Youth Services.
  • Itemize your charitable deductions on Federal Schedule A, including this donation for a Federal Tax deduction.
  • Your "add back" is done on Arizona Schedule A (Arizona will not permit you to take this as both a deduction and a credit).
  • Complete Arizona tax forms 321 and 301.
  • On Page One of Arizona Form 140, you may take a dollar-for-dollar credit*.
  • The State of Arizona will reduce the amount you owe in state taxes, up to $400*!

    • Since your donation is Federally deductible and the State of Arizona may reduce your tax burden by 100% of the amount of your donation, you could actually save on your Federal taxes and enjoy a return on your investment in HomeBase!

    The Working Poor Tax Credit may be taken in addition to the public school tax credit and the private school tax credit.

    *Maximum amount of credit depends upon your filing status. For tax years 2006 and later, married couples filing jointly have a maximum credit of $400. Taxpayers filing as single or head of household have a maximum credit of $200.
