You will need the information to claim the credit. Click here for more information on the low income credits available in VA. Below is an extract from the Credit for Low Income Individuals.
Note for married couples filing separately:
Only one spouse may claim the credit. The spouse claiming the credit must include the other spouse’s VAGI, and the VAGI of any dependent the other spouse claims, in their total family VAGI to determine their eligibility for the credit.
What makes up family VAGI?
Virginia adjusted gross income (VAGI):
Federal adjusted gross income (from your federal income tax return)
+ any required additions to income
- your Social Security income and any allowable subtractions from income.
Virginia adjusted gross income
For further details, please see Form 760.
To calculate your family’s VAGI, combine your VAGI with that of your spouse and any dependents you have, even if they were not required to file a Virginia income tax return.
