The Retirement Savings Credit depends on your Adjusted Gross Income and the amounts you contribute to qualified savings accounts. If you are filing jointly, only the first $2,000 contributed by each spouse counts towards the credit. In your case, if your rate of credit is 10% and the $3,000 was contributed by only one of the spouses then the credit will be $200 (10% of $2,000). If the $3,000 were contributed by each of the spouses (say $2,000 for one and $1,000 for the other) then the tax credit would be $300 (10% of $3,000)
