If the income tax liability for the current tax year or for the prior tax year reduced by any allowable credits is less than $1,000, the requirement is waived. See 36 M.R.S. § 5228(2). The amount of estimated tax due for the taxable year must be paid in four equal installments unless: Note: For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2022, a corporation has nexus with Maine if the corporation is organized or commercially domiciled in Maine or if, in Maine, any of the following thresholds are exceeded: $250,000 in property, $250,000 in payroll, $500,000 in sales, or 25% of the corporation’s total property, payroll, or sales is in Maine. See 36 M.R.S. § 5200-B. b. The taxpayer is a large corporation as defined by IRC § 6655(g)(2)(A). Such large corporations may elect to determine the first required installment for any taxable year based on the preceding year’s state income tax liability, if that preceding year was a taxable year of 12 months. 2. Amount of estimated tax to be paid: The estimated tax must be no less than the smaller of the following: a. An amount equal to the preceding year’s tax liability, if that preceding year was a taxable year of 12 months; or b. An amount equal to 90% of the tax liability for the current tax year. Exception: Large corporations as defined by IRC § 6655(g) (2)(A), are required to pay estimated taxes in accordance with paragraph b, except as provided in 36 M.R.S. § 5228(5)(C). 3. Due dates for estimated tax installments: Installment payments are due on the 15th day of the 4th, 6th, 9th and 12th months following the beginning of the corporation’s fiscal year. If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, substitute the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. Line 5 a.

Underpayment penalty: A penalty equal to the interest rate on overdue taxes accrues automatically on underpayments of the required installment amount for the period of underpayment. The period of underpayment is the period of time from the date the installment is due until the underpayment is satisfied or until the tax return to which the estimate installment applies is due, whichever occurs earlier. Calculate the underpayment penalty on Form 2220ME. 6. Short taxable year: For a corporation having a tax year of less than 12 months, the estimated tax must be paid in full by the 15th day of the last month of the tax year. If you are filing a tax return for a short tax year, identify your next filing period in the space provided on the voucher. Specific Instructions Column A Quarterly Estimate.

Form 1120W-ME is a Maine Corporate 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 Corporate Income Tax

The IRS and most states require corporations to file an income tax return, with the exact filing requirements depending on the type of company.

Sole proprietorships or disregarded entities like LLCs are filed on Schedule C (or the state equivalent) of the owner's personal income tax return, flow-through entities like S Corporations or Partnerships are generally required to file an informational return equivilent to the IRS Form 1120S or Form 1065, and full corporations must file the equivalent of federal Form 1120 (and, unlike flow-through corporations, are often subject to a corporate tax liability).

Additional forms are available for a wide variety of specific entities and transactions including fiduciaries, nonprofits, and companies involved in other specific types of business.
