- your tax credit cannot exceed your tax liability
(your tax credit cannot be larger than what you owe)
Donations over the limits are definitely welcome and appreciated, but you may only claim up to the stated limits as a tax credit.
Annual limits for Tax Credits are set by the Arizona Department of Revenue.
To claim your tax credit, you must complete AZ Form 352 and follow the instructions provided when filing your Arizona Personal Income Tax.
