Complete the Research and Development Worksheet in Schedule 1299-I. Bring the corresponding amounts from 
Schedule 1299-I, Worksheet, Line 6, Columns A and B, to Schedule 1299-D, Step 1, Line 1, Columns A and B. Follow the instructions on 
Schedule 1299-D to calculate the amount to list in Step 3, Column F on the line that you enter Credit Code 5340 in Column B.

STEP 2 - Calculate your credit for the current year **Complete Step 3 before completing this Step**

Enter the total amount (sum) of credit available to be carried into this tax year from your 2021 Schedule 1299-D, Credit Carryforward to Next 
Year Calculation Worksheet, or other worksheet used to calculate your carry forward from 2021. 

Lines 5 through 10 - 
Follow the instructions on the form.

STEP 3 - Enter your current credits **Complete this Step before completing Step 2** 
You must list all new credits, distributive shares, or transferred credits that were earned or received this year. This schedule must be 
completed if you earned or received credits this year, even if you are not using the credits to offset current tax liability. 
If you have more qualifying credits than space provided on Schedule 1299-D, attach additional Schedule(s) 1299-D and enter the total credit 
you may claim on your original Schedule 1299-D, Step 2, Line 5 and Step 3, Line 35, Column I. Do not enter the total on your additional 
schedules.
Additionally, if you received more than one Schedule K-1-P for any eligible credit, add the amounts from all Schedules K-1-P for that credit 
and enter the total in Step 3, Column G on the line with that credit code on your Schedule 1299-D.
Follow the instructions below to complete Schedule 1299-D, Step 3, Columns A through E and Columns G through I. To determine the

Worksheets.
Lines 11 through 34 - 
Column A - Expiration Date
Enter the four-digit year and two-digit month of the expiration of each credit. Separate the year and the month with a dash (YYYY-MM). For 
example, if you first earned and received a Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) certificate for a Film Production 
Services credit in August of 2022 and you are a calendar-year filer, you will enter “2027-12” as the expiration date in Column A for this credit. 
Note: Only credits earned this year are to be entered on this schedule. 

Column B - Credit Code
Each credit has a four-digit code used to identify it. The first digit of the code indicates how many years the credit can be carried forward. For 
example, all credits that can be carried forward two years start with “2”. The remaining three digits are the unique indicator for that specific 
code. Ten year carry forwards will use two digits for the year and two digits as the unique indicator. Credit codes that start with “0” cannot be 
carried forward.

                 carried forward, or distributed on returns for tax periods ending after December 31, 2025. 
Column C - Credit Earned
Write the four-digit year and two-digit month of the Illinois tax year ending during which the credit was first earned. Separate the year and the 
month with a dash (YYYY-MM). For example, if you first earned and received a Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) 
certificate for a Film Production Services credit in August of 2022 and you are a fiscal filer with a tax year beginning July 1, 2022 and ending 
June 30, 2023, you will enter “2023-06” for this credit. 
Note: 
If you are a 52/53-week filer, use the calendar or fiscal year-end date closest to your tax year-end date. For example, if a 52/53-week filer 
  has a year ending of 12/27/2022 or 1/2/2023, they would use 2022-12 for their tax year end date. 
If you are filing a short year return, use the last month that your tax year-end falls in to determine your Tax Year Credit Earned. For 
  example, a short year return filed for the period of 1/1/2023 - 2/15/2023 would use a tax year end date of 2023-02.
Column D - Unitary Member FEIN
Enter the FEIN of the unitary member that earned the credit. If you are a non-unitary filer, this column should be left blank. 
Column E - Certificate Number
If you earn the Invest in Kids credit, enter the certificate number from the Certificate of Receipt (COR) you received from the Scholarship 
Granting Organization (SGO).  
If you receive a distributive share of the Invest in Kids credit, do not enter anything in Column E.  
For all other credits leave this column blank. 
Column F - Credit Amount Earned 
Use the instructions and worksheets in Schedule 1299-I to determine the correct amount of credit to report in this column. 
Keep a copy of Schedules 1299-I and 1299-D in your records. You may be asked to provide a copy of Schedule 1299-I as additional 
verification and you will use these schedules to complete your credit carryforward information on Schedule 1299-D next year.
Column G - Distributive Share Credit from K-1-P
Enter the sum of your distributive share of credits that were received from an S corporation or partnership on Schedule K-1-P.
In order to claim the amount reported to you on a Schedule K-1-P, the tax year ending listed on a Schedule K-1-P you received must fall 
within your tax year. If you report an amount in this column, include a copy of the Schedule(s) K-1-P you received. 
For non-unitary filers, if you receive more than one Schedule K-1-P with a distributive share of the same eligible credit, you should add the 
amounts from all Schedules K-1-P for that credit and enter the total on the corresponding line on Schedule 1299-D, Step 3, Column G.
If you are a unitary group and you are claiming distributive shares received by multiple unitary group members, complete a separate row on 
Schedule 1299-D, Step 3 for each credit type and each unitary group member that received the distributive shares. On each row, list the FEIN 
of the member that received the distributive share in Column D.
  For example, unitary group member A (FEIN 12-3456789) received $500 in distributive shares for the Angel Investment credit during the 
  tax year ending 12/31/22. Member B (FEIN 98-7654321) received $300 in distributive shares for the Angel Investment credit during the 
  tax year ending 12/31/22. Member C (FEIN 99-1188227) received $300 in distributive shares for the Film Production Services credit on 
  one Schedule K-1-P and $250 in distributive shares for the Film Production Services credit on another Schedule K-1-P, during the tax 
  year ending 12/31/22. Complete Schedule 1299-D, Step 3 as follows:
     enter “2027-12” in Column A, “5000” in Column B, “2022-12” in Column C, “99-1188227” in Column D, and “550” in Columns G and I
     enter “2027-12” in Column A, “5460” in Column B, “2022-12” in Column C, “12-3456789” in Column D, and “500” in Columns G and I
     enter “2027-12” in Column A, “5460” in Column B, “2022-12” in Column C, “98-7654321” in Column D, and “300” in Columns G and I
Schedule 1299-D Instructions (R-02/23)                                                                                                                                                                                                              Page 3 of 6

Schedule 1299-D, Step 3 to complete the current year Credit Carryforward to Next Year Calculation Worksheet. 
Note: Do not send these pages with your return. 

Column A - Expiration Date
1. Figure the expiration date - Use the information on your prior year Worksheet, Column A, and your current year Schedule 1299-D, Step 3, 
Column A, to determine the expiration date of your credits. 
2. Enter credits in the following order - Using the prior year Worksheet and current year Schedule 1299-D, enter credits with the earliest 
expiration date first. Then list the next earliest date and progress chronologically until all available credit has been listed. Do not include 
credits from your prior year Worksheet that list an Expiration Date in Column A that is prior to your current Tax Year End. Do not include 
credits from your prior year Worksheet that list zero in Column F, Credit Carryforward to Next Year. If you have multiple credits with the same 
expiration date, list them in ascending order by credit code within the zero-year, then two-year, then five-year and finally ten-year credits. 
Applying the credits in this manner ensures that the credits are used in the correct order. Credits are applied based on the earliest expiration.
Column B - Credit Code
Enter the Credit Code for each credit earned or carried and listed on the worksheet. 
Column C - Credit Available for use this year
Using the amounts from your prior year Worksheet, Column F, and current year Schedule 1299-D, Step 3, Column I, list the total credit 
available for use this year that corresponds to the expiration date in Column A and Credit Code in Column B. 
Column D - Tax Calculation
In this step you are subtracting the income tax credit from the income tax due as follows:
Subtract the amount on Line 1, Column C from the amount on Line (a) at the top of the worksheet and enter the total on Line 1, 
  Column D. 
Subtract the amount on Line 2, Column C from the amount on Line 1, Column D and enter the total on Line 2, Column D.
Continue subtracting Column C of each line from Column D of the previous line and entering the amount in Column D until you have 
  subtracted all available credits listed on this schedule (or additional schedules) or when the Column D amount becomes zero or a 
  negative number. 
STOP calculating when Column D becomes zero or negative. Enter N/A in Column D below the line when Column D becomes zero or 
negative. 
Column E - Credit Applied This Year 
If the amount in Column D is zero or positive, transfer Column C to Column E. 
If the amount in Column D is negative, add the negative amount in Column D to Column C and enter the total in Column E. 
If Column D is N/A, write “0” in Column E.
Column F - Credit Carryforward to Next Year
Figure your credit available to carryforward to next year.
If any of the credits listed on the Worksheet have an expiration date that coincides with or is prior to the close of your tax year, enter “0” in 
  Column F. This is the final year that this credit may be used or carried regardless of any unused amount. 
For the rest of the lines, subtract Column E from Column C and enter the result in Column F. 
Line 43
Total Column F. This is your Schedule 1299-D Credit Carryforward available for 2023. Do not send this worksheet with your return. 

Keep a copy of Schedule 1299-D and this worksheet for your records and for use next year.
