If at least 80% of the tax due for the taxable year is not paid by the original return due date, the extension is considered null and void, and penalties and interest for a late return and any late payments will be assessed from the original due date of the return. General Information Extension Process for Fiduciary Taxpayers The extension process is automated so that all fiduciary taxpayers are given an extension of time to file their tax returns if certain payment requirements are met. Fiduciary taxpayers must have paid at least 80% of the tax due for the taxable year by the original due date for filing the return. Taxpayers meeting the payment requirements will be given an automatic six-month extension to file their returns. See TIR 16-10. Fiduciary Taxpayers Subject to the 4% Surtax Starting with tax year January 1, 2023, Massachusetts residents must pay an additional 4% tax on the portion of their annual taxable income exceeding $1,000,000 and nonresidents must pay it on the portion of their annual taxable income sourced to Massachusetts that exceeds $1,000,000. To be eligible for the automatic extension, such taxpayers must have paid at least 80% of the tax due for the taxable year, including the 4% surtax, by the original due date for filing the return. If the 4% Surtax applies to you, it must be included in the total tax you expect to owe on Line 1 of the Worksheet for Tax Due to determine the amount due by the original due date. Note: For tax year 2023, your employer may not have withheld the 4% surtax from your wages. Further, if you are a member of a pass-through entity (PTE), the PTE might not have withheld the surtax on your distributive income. When Should the Payment with Form M-8736 Be Submitted? The full amount of tax due for the taxable year must be paid by or before the original due date of the return. Fiduciary taxpayers must pay any amount due on or before April 17, 2024, or on or before the 15th day of the fourth month after the close of the taxable year for fiscal year filers. If the due date is a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, you should substitute the next regular workday. Any fiduciary taxpayer making an extension payment of $2,500 or more must make the payment electronically. All other fiduciary taxpayers must pay online at mass.gov/masstaxconnect or use the voucher below.

Will Interest and Penalties Be Due? An extension of time to file a fiduciary tax return does not extend the due date for payment of the tax. Interest will be charged on any tax not paid on or before the original due date. Any tax not paid within the extended period is subject to a penalty of 1% per month, up to a maximum of 25%, from the extended due date. If the extension is invalidated for failure to meet the 80% payment requirements then penalties and interest for a late return and late payment will be assessed from the original due date of the return. How Do I Use this Worksheet and Voucher? Use this worksheet to calculate the tax due that must be paid by or before the original due date of the return. Pay online with MassTaxConnect at mass.gov/masstaxconnect or use the Form M-8736 voucher.

Form M-8736 is a Massachusetts Corporate Income Tax form. The IRS and most states will grant an automatic 6-month extension of time to file income tax and other types of tax returns, which can be obtained by filing the proper extension request form. Obtaining an extension will prevent you from being subject to often very large failure-to-file penalties. However, in most cases this extension does not exempt you from the requirement to pay any tax owed in full by the return's original filing date.

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.
