STATE RETURN: If I took Standard Deduction on Federal Return, can I take Food Pantry Tax Credit on State Return?

For your information:

Food Pantry Tax Credit (FTP) is an apportioned tax credit. Apportioned tax credits have a funding limit each fiscal year. In the event the total amount of an apportioned tax credit exceeds the amount available for the year, the credit will be apportioned equally among all eligible taxpayers claiming the credit. If an apportionment occurs, the tax credit amount claimed on your return will be reduced.
