If you are a resident of Utah that works in another state you will have to pay taxes on income earned in the other state to Utah. This is because Utah taxes all income that its residents earn, regardless of where the income is earned. The problem is that the state that you earned the income in may also tax the income. If this is the case you may qualify for a credit from Utah on this income, which allows you to avoid facing dual taxation on such income. To qualify for this credit file Form-TC40S (attached below) and attach it to your Utah return (filed using Form-TC-40) and the return for the other state.
