New Jersey

As of March 25, 2020, no extension of time to file corporate or individual income tax returns has been granted. Legislators in the New Jersey Assembly passed A. 3841 which would extend corporate and individual filing and payment deadlines to coincide with the federal extensions granted to June 30, 2020; however, this action has not yet become law as it awaits the Governor’s signature.

• Extends the deadline for declarations of estimated personal Income Tax (PIT)
