Use this form to see if you must pay a penalty for underpaying your estimated tax or paying your estimated tax late. Use Part I to see if you paid enough estimated tax on time. If you did not, use Part II to calculate the penalty on any underpayment. Who Must Pay the Underpayment Penalty? In general, you will owe an underpayment penalty if your 2023 tax liability less allowable credits and withholding is $1,000 or more and your 2022 tax liability before tax credits, income tax withholding or any other tax payment(s) for the tax year was $1,000 or more. Note: Maine law disallows the use of the election to pay estimated tax based on the prior year’s tax liability when an unusual event occurs, such as realization of a large, one-time capital gain. You must pay 90% of the tax on the unusual event income for the installment period during which the unusual event occurs. An unusual event occurs when taxable income for the estimated tax installment period exceeds the taxable income received during the same period in the prior tax year by at least $500,000. If you received unusual event income during any estimated tax installment period beginning in 2023, you must adjust the estimated tax due on line 9 of this form for that period. You will not owe an underpayment penalty or need to file this form if your 2023 tax liability reduced by allowable credits and Maine income tax withheld is less than $1,000, or your 2022 tax liability was less than $1,000. Even though you are required to file this form, you will avoid the underpayment penalty if you paid at least 90% of the 2023 tax on time. Farmers and Persons who fish commercially. If you are a farmer or person who fishes commercially who files an income tax return and pays the tax liability in full on or before March 1 of the following year, no penalty is due. Payment Method. Individuals must make four (4) equal installment payments of estimated tax unless they can document the actual liability for each required installment of estimated tax. Use the actual liability method if your income varied during the year because, for example, you own a seasonal business or the majority of your income was received in one payment. Using this method may lower or eliminate the amount of your quarterly estimated tax payments. To calculate your actual liability, complete the Annualized Installment Worksheet for each payment due date and check the box on line 17 on this form and on Form 1040ME, line 34b or Form 1041ME, line 8b. Note: Forms are available at www.maine.gov/revenue/tax-return-forms. Computation of Underpayment Penalty. Calculate the penalty on the amount of the underpayment of each installment for the period of underpayment. The penalty rate for calendar year 2023 is .5833% per month or fraction thereof, compounded monthly. For calendar year 2024, the penalty rate is .8333% per month or fraction thereof, compounded monthly. Enter on line 14 the appropriate rate from the table below that corresponds to the number of months shown on line 13. Multiply the underpayment on line 11a by the rate on line 14 and enter the result on line 15. Do not calculate the penalty for the 4th required payment if the tax return for the taxable year is filed and the tax is paid in full by January 31. Fiscal-year filers may not use the table below. Number of months shown on line 13 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Enter this rate on line 14, column A .005833 .011701 .017602 .023538 .029509 .035514 .041555 .047631 .056361 .065164 .074040 .082991 Enter this rate on line 14, column B .005833 .011701 .017602 .023538 .029509 .035514 .044144 .052845 .061619 .070465 Enter this rate on line 14, column C .005833 .011701 .017602 .026082 .034633 .043255 .051949 Enter this rate on line 14, column D .008333 .016736 .025209

Form 2210ME is a Maine Individual Income Tax form. While most taxpayers have income taxes automatically withheld every pay period by their employer, taxpayers who earn money that is not subject to withholding (such as self employed income, investment returns, etc) are often required to make estimated tax payments on a quarterly basis. Failure to make correct estimated payments can result in interest or penalties.

About the Individual Income Tax

The IRS and most states collect a personal income tax, which is paid throughout the year via tax withholding or estimated income tax payments.

Most taxpayers are required to file a yearly income tax return in April to both the Internal Revenue Service and their state's revenue department, which will result in either a tax refund of excess withheld income or a tax payment if the withholding does not cover the taxpayer's entire liability. Every taxpayer's situation is different - please consult a CPA or licensed tax preparer to ensure that you are filing the correct tax forms!
