How do I get my extension for time to file the tax?
If you can't file your Idaho return by the due date, you will be allowed an automatic
six-month extension of time to file without sending a written request. To qualify,
you must pay at least 80% of the current year income tax liability or 100% of the
total income tax reported on your income tax return for the preceding year, if one
was filed.
If you will owe $50 or less, a payment isn't required; however, interest will accrue.
Paying less than the required amount will result in a penalty. A penalty will also
result if you pay the required amount but fail to pay the remainder of the tax due
by the extended due date. Interest accrues on any balance of tax due on the return
when it is filed.
Corporations
Multiply 7.6% by the estimated taxable income. If this results in less than $20, use $20 as the estimated tax. Add the $10 permanent building fund tax to the estimated income tax and subtract the amount estimated for income tax credits.
S Corporations
S corporations are subject to tax on excess net passive income and net recognized built-in gains. Use 7.6% to compute the estimated tax on this income. If the estimated tax on these items is less than $20 or the S corporation doesn't report income from these items, use $20 as the estimated tax.
S Corporations, partnerships, trusts, and estates with individual Shareholders, Partners, and Beneficiaries
If the income is reported and the tax paid for the individual shareholders, partners, or beneficiaries, use 7.6% to compute the estimated tax. This is in addition to the tax computed for the S corporation, trust, or estate. Add the $10 permanent building fund tax for each individual not filing an Idaho individual income tax return.
Trusts and Estates
Add the permanent building fund tax to the computed tax unless all income is distributed to beneficiaries, or if the trust is a qualified funeral trust.
