HB 2764 (signed May 2025) restructures Oklahoma's income tax starting tax year 2026:
Oklahoma starts from federal adjusted gross income (AGI) on federal Form 1040, Line 11. Oklahoma then applies its own modifications (additions and subtractions) to arrive at Oklahoma AGI, then subtracts the standard or itemized deduction and personal exemptions to arrive at Oklahoma taxable income.
Key flow:
Oklahoma allows a deduction for federal income tax liability. This is unusual among states. The deduction is limited and calculated on Schedule 511-D. The cap is based on the taxpayer's federal AGI.
