The Arizona Private School Tuition Tax Credit Law allows a married couple filing jointly to make a donation each year up to $1000 and receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit against the taxpayer's Arizona state income tax. A single taxpayer is limited to $500. If the taxpayer has actual Arizona state income tax less than the maximum allowable, the available credit in a given year is limited to the actual tax and allows a carry forward for up to 5 years if the donation is in excess of the actual state income tax due. Donations must be postmarked or delivered by April 15th to be claimed for the prior tax year.
Sounds great, how do I do this?
Mail a check and/or completed donation card to ACSTO: PO Box 6580, Chandler, AZ 85246, or donate online at www.acsto.org. ACSTO can also accept credit card donations.
How can a private school or student benefit from my donations?
You may recommend a specific private school and/or a student when making your donation; however, a school tuition organization cannot award, restrict or reserve scholarships solely on the basis of a donor's recommendation. A taxpayer may not claim a tax credit if the taxpayer agrees to swap donations with another taxpayer to benefit either taxpayer's own dependent.
