Multiply 2023 income measure of excise and non-income measure of excise (tangible property or taxable net worth) by 2022 apportionment factor. Then multiply the result by 2023 tax rate. Multiply that result by .90 (90%) and enter the result on line 3. Massachusetts General Laws (MGL) ch 62, §§ 11 and 12 require C cor­ porations to file their tax returns on or before the 15th day of the fourth month following the close of each taxable year (April 15 in the case of corporations filing on a calendar year basis). The filing due date for S corporation tax returns is the 15th day of the third month following the close of each taxable year. For more information, see TIR 17-5: 2017 Supplemental Budget: Conforming Massachusetts Partnership and C Corporation Tax Return Filing Due Dates to Federal Due Dates. Lines 7 through 12. To determine the underpayment amount, complete lines 7 through 12 for each appropriate column. If line 11 shows an overpayment, that overpayment may first be used as a payment of any existing underpayment amount. Overpayments used as payments of prior underpayment amounts do not decrease the actual underpayment amount but serve to reduce instead the period of underpayment subject to penalty. If there are no existing underpayment amounts, the overpayment is applied as a credit against the next installment. If more than one payment is made for a given installment, attach separate computations for each payment. y. d. For calendar year filers, April 15, 2024, when 2023 returns and payments would normally be due, is Patriot’s Day, a legal holiday in the Commonwealth which extends the filing due date to the next business day. As a result, returns, payments made with returns, and estimated payments otherwise due on April 15, 2024, will be treated as timely if they are filed and/or paid on or before April 16, 2024. te Line 35. Enter the line 35 amount on the corresponding line item of the taxpayer’s tax return as follows: Form 355, line 25a; Form 355U, line 41; Form 355S, line 28a; Form 355SC, line 21a; Form 355SBC, line 14; Form 63 FI, line 25a; Form 63-20P, line 34a; Form 63-23P, line 41a; Form 63-29A, line 39a; or Form M-990T, line 36a. n. at io e re t rm in e or ur ns Short year. Corporations are liable for estimated payments even if there was no return filed for 2022 or if a return filed for 2022 was for less than 12 months. Corporations meeting either of these conditions should enter the smaller of lines 2 or 3 in line 5. See 830 CMR 63B.2.2 for additional information. To avoid underpayment penalties the first estimated tax installment should be paid on or before the first installment due date, not the return due date. fo rm w ill Corporations taxed under Ch. 63 of the Massachusetts General Laws should use Form M-2220 to determine whether they paid the correct amount of estimated tax by the proper due date. If not, a penalty may be imposed on the underpayment amount. fo no Who should use this form Note: Payments made with a return, including extension payments, estimated tax payments and withholding, are considered to be paid on the last day prescribed for the filing of the return and/or the payment of the tax, without regard to any extensions. See MGL ch 62C, § 79. Therefore, any overpayment from a prior year return will be considered to be paid as of the prior year return due date. For example, if a calendar year C corporation reported an overpayment on its 2022 corporation excise tax return and elected to apply it as a credit to its 2023 estimated tax, the payment will be credited as of April 15, 2023, which is the 2022 return due date and about one month after the due date of the first estimated tax installment payment for the 2023 tax year. tb E- Fi le Effective for tax periods ending on or after De­cember 31, 2021, electronic filing and payment of tax will be required of all business corporations and financial institutions subject to tax under MGL ch 63, with no income threshold. For more information, see TIR 21-9: Expansion of Certain Electronic Filing and Payment Requirements. ac ce p O nl Expansion of Mandatory Electronic Filing for Corporate Excise Returns Se e TI R s -9 21 16 - 9 Note: New corporations in their first full taxable year with less than 10 employees have lower payment percentages — 30-25-25-20%; 55- 2520%; and 80-20%. New corporations should check the box in line 7 and use these percentage amounts to complete line 7. an d Pa p er Large corporation. Any corporation having $1 million or more of federal taxable income in any of its three preceding taxable years (IRC § 6655(g)) may only use its prior year tax liability to calculate its first quarterly estimated payment. Any reduction in the first installment payment must be added to the second installment payment.

Form M-2220 is a Massachusetts Corporate Income Tax form. States often have dozens of even hundreds of various tax credits, which, unlike deductions, provide a dollar-for-dollar reduction of tax liability. Some common tax credits apply to many taxpayers, while others only apply to extremely specific situations. In most cases, you will have to provide evidence to show that you are eligible for the tax credit, and calculate the amount of the credit to which you are entitled.

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.
