About Georgia Form 500
Georgia Form 500 is the individual income tax return used by full-year residents, part-year residents, and nonresidents who need to file a Georgia return. Use this form to report income, calculate Georgia state income tax, claim applicable credits, and determine whether you owe tax or are due a refund. The 2025 Form 500 PDF includes the main return, Schedules 1, 2, 2B, 3, and 4, individual credit forms, and the IND-CR Summary Worksheet.
Part-year residents and nonresidents complete Schedule 3 to calculate the income taxable to Georgia. Schedule 3 begins on PDF page 11 of the 2025 packet, so you do not need a separate download. Use the IT-511 instruction booklet to complete the return and determine which other schedules or credit forms apply.
Georgia discontinued Form 500EZ beginning with tax year 2025. Use Form 500 for 2025 individual income tax returns, including returns that previously qualified for the short form.
