STO4KIDZ accepts contributions throughout the year. Contributions must be made prior to filing your taxes but no later than April 15.
Most people pay state income taxes unless they have no earned income or are taking a loss. Even if you get a refund, you've still paid taxes. Your liability is the total you’d owe without any payments made during the year. If you have no tax liability, you can't get the credit. (ARS 43-1089 & ARS 43-1089.03)
The best way to estimate your income tax liability is to ask your tax advisor. If you don’t have one, check last year’s return to see your income tax liability: Line 48 on your Arizona Form 140, Line 58 on Forms 140PY (Part Year Resident) and Arizona 140NR (Non-Resident) forms. If your income is similar, your liability should be too.

HOW TO CONTRIBUTE:
Step 1: Identity how much is your Arizona state income tax liability. (If you receive a W2, check your last Pay-stub or your W2 slip for the amount of your State taxes).
Step 2: Make your contribution
Step 3: For tax filing purposes, the total amount is broken down into two (2) categories: (Individual Original & Individual Switcher tax credit).
If your income tax is above the maximum amount allowed for filing jointly or filing singly, then do the following:
- Select the dollar amount for your filing status (married/jointly or single) under the Individual Original tax credit and repeat the steps under the Switcher section.
If your income tax is less than the maximum amount allowed for filing jointly or filing singly, then do the following:
- Select "Other Amount" under the Individual Original tax credit and type the total amount of your tax credit contribution, ONLY.
Step 4: List your recommended student(s)/ school (optional) and complete your payment.
Step 5: Once STO4KIDZ receives your payment, we will email or mail you an official receipt with instructions on how to claim your tax credit and the tax forms to use when filing your state taxes.
