If you received a Schedule IN K-1 that reported the credit you want to claim on your Indiana tax return, you can find the code there. Otherwise, you should have received a credit certification letter from the authorizing entity with the relevant Certification/Project Number information.
To claim the credit you're entering on Schedule IN-OCC, you should have requested and received certification to claim the credit from the appropriate authority. If so, you would have received a certification letter from the authorizing entity (or on your IN K-1, if applicable.)
See the Instructions for Other Certified Credits on the back of the schedule linked above for more information.
However, if you're getting the certification/project number request in the Indiana interview and you don't know why, you may have made an entry in the Indiana portion of the TurboTax program that indicates you want to claim one of the following certified state credits:
- EDGE-NR Credit
- Film and Media Production Credit
- Foster Care Donation Credit
- Headquarters Relocation Credit
- Hoosier Business Investment Credit
- Natural Gas Commercial Vehicle Credit
- Redevelopment Tax Credit
- School Scholarship Credit
- Venture Capital Investment Credit
- VCI - Qualified Indiana Investment Fund
To make sure you haven't accidentally claimed one of these credits in the Indiana section of TurboTax Online:
- Open TurboTax Online
- Select Tax Home in the left pane
- On the Hi, let's keep working on your taxes! screen, select the dropdown on the right side of the State Taxes box, then select Start, Continue, or Review/Edit
- In the left pane, select Prepare State
- Proceed through the screens until you come to the Status of your state returns screen
- Select Start, Continue or Edit to the right of Indiana
- Proceed through the state screens until you come to the Take a look at Indiana credits and taxes screen.
- If you see an amount of credit that you're not entitled to next to any credit displayed on the screen, select Edit next to the credit
- Make any necessary changes on the following screens to remove the credit information
