🔍 State Section 179 Difference
Use this guide when your state Section 179 amounts are different from the federal amounts on the Depreciation Worksheet.
⚠️ Before You Begin
You should use this option when:
- You are preparing a state return
- The state depreciation, 179 deduction, or basis for the property is different from the federal amounts
📊 Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Select the State Difference Check Box
Use this when you need to indicate your state amounts differ from federal amounts.
On the Depreciation Worksheet, below the heading Depreciation, Amortization, and Section 179, select the check box if you are preparing a state return and the state depreciation, 179 deduction, or basis for the property is different from the federal amounts.
Step 2: Fill In Both Federal and State Columns
Use this to ensure the worksheet is completed correctly when the state option is selected.
If you select this check box, both the Federal and State columns in this section must be filled in. Even when the amounts are the same for both.
Step 3: Enter the State Section 179 Maximum (If Different)
Use this when your state Section 179 expense maximum is not $25,000.
Go to the Section 179 section of the Depreciation Worksheet and above line 1, enter the state section 179 expense maximum allowed if it is anything other than $25,000.
