Filing Requirements The fire safety surcharge is effective for insurers licensed to write homeowners, fire and commercial nonliability policy premiums. This surcharge does not apply to Minnesota township mutual fire insurance companies organized under M.S. 67A. Mutual property and casualty companies (described in M.S. 297I.05, subd. 3 and 4) shall elect to collect and file the fire safety surcharge (Form IG261) or the (Form IG262).

Due Dates File your quarterly Form IG261 and pay any surcharge due by May 15, Aug. 15 and Nov. 15 of the current year and Feb. 15 of the following year. Please make separate electronic payments or write separate checks for each return. The U.S. postmark date, or date recorded or marked by a designated delivery service, is considered the filing date (private postage meter marks are not valid). When the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, returns and payments electronically made or postmarked the next business day are considered timely. When a return or payment is late, the date it is received at the Department of Revenue is treated as the date filed or paid. Extension for filing return. If good cause exists, you may request a filing extension. Payments Electronic Payments If your total insurance taxes and surcharges for the last 12-month period ending June 30 is $10,000 or more, you are required to pay your tax electronically in all subsequent years. You must also pay electronically if you’re required to pay any Minnesota business tax electronically, such as sales or withholding tax. To pay electronically, go to the department’s website at www.revenue.state.mn.us and log in. You’ll need your user name, password and bank routing and account numbers. When paying electronically, you must use an account not associated with any foreign banks.

Submit separate payments for each return. Check Payments If you are not required to pay electronically and you choose to pay by check, you must mail a personalized payment voucher along with your estimated tax payment to help ensure the payment is credited correctly. Go to www.revenue.state.mn.us and select Make a Payment. Select Check or Money Order. Use the Payment Voucher System to create a voucher. When you pay by check, your check authorizes us to make a one-time electronic fund transfer from your account. You will not receive your canceled check. Note: If no amount is due or if you pay electronically, do not send in a voucher.
