Thanks for pointing out the duplicate 'Learn More' screens.  This will be passed on appropriately.

 

To qualify for the Utah 'At Home Credit' the following applies:

 

"..the total of the at-home parent’s wages, tips and compensation listed on federal W-2 forms and the gross income on federal Schedule C, Profit or Loss from Business, line 7, must be $3,000 or less for the taxable year.."

 

Here's more detail from the Utah Tax Commission.  

 

Other qualifications include:

 

  • You or your spouse provide full-time, at-home care for an infant child. The child must be 12 months old or younger on the last day of the tax year for which the credit is claimed.
  • The at-home parent must provide full-time care in the at-home parent’s residence.
  • The child must be claimed as a dependent on the at-home parent’s tax return.

 

Remember, the credit is nonrefundable. So, if your tax liability is zero, this credit will not produce a refund.
