par. (b).
71.08(1)(c)
(c) For nonresidents and part-year residents, adjust the amount under

71.08(1)(d)
(d) Subtract from the amount under
par. (c) the appropriate amount under section
55 (d) (1) and (3) of the internal revenue code; except that surviving spouses shall be treated as single individuals; except that the amount under
