A filled-in Form IT-112-C example: a New York resident claims credit for Ontario tax

Form IT-112-C example filled out, example: a New York resident claims credit for Ontario tax
Dana Sample, a New York resident, files Form IT-112-C. She earned 50,000 in Ontario wages, and Ontario taxed all of it. The picture shows page 1 only, and every value in it is made up. Her wages are the only income, so Part 1 - Income and adjustments leaves lines 2 through 15, 17, 19 and 21 empty because she had no other income, no adjustments and no lump-sum distributions. Her federal adjusted gross income and her New York State adjusted gross income are both 50,000.
