The starting point for the Arizona individual income tax return is the federal adjusted gross income (FAGI) determined on the federal return. This number is then adjusted for specific Arizona additions, subtractions, deductions and exemptions to determine Arizona taxable income. The deduction taken on the federal return for qualified business income (QBI) is taken after the determination of FAGI on the federal return; therefore the deduction is not part of Arizona’s starting point.
