Electronic Filing Information
Electronic Filing Mandate - N/A
E-File Registration Requirements - Acceptance in the Hawaii e-file program is automatic with acceptance in the federal e-file program.
Tax Years That Can Be E-Filed – Current tax year and two prior tax years
State Only Return Requirements – Hawaii state returns can be filed with the federal return or if the federal return was previously accepted, sent state-only through the Federal/State Electronic Filing Program.
Amended Returns - The amended Hawaii return must be filed in paper form, mailed to the appropriate address (see Mailing Addresses below).
Electronic Signatures – Currently, TaxSlayer Pro does not support electronic signatures on Hawaii forms.
General Tax Return Information
Due Date - Individual Returns - April 20
Extensions - Hawaii provides individuals with an automatic six-month extension to file their tax return without the need to file anything with the Department of Taxation, however to avoid penalty the taxpayer should pay tax due by the deadline. This can be done by mailing payment with Form N-200V or by making a payment online at the Hawaii DOT website here.
Driver’s License/Government Issued Photo Identification: Hawaii does not require this information to file the tax return. Providing the information will help identify the taxpayer's identity and can prevent unnecessary delays in tax return processing.
Filing Status Information
Hawaii does not require the same filing status used on the federal return. Currently TaxSlayer Pro does not support a different filing status for Hawaii.
Residency Status Information for Hawaii Returns
Residents: Residents are individuals who are domiciled in Hawaii even if the individual is outside Hawaii for a temporary or transitory purpose. Individuals who spend more than 200 days in the tax year within Hawaii are presumed to be residents. Residents file Form N-11, Individual Income Tax Return (Resident Form).
Part-year Residents/Nonresidents: Part-year residents or nonresidents are individuals whose permanent domicile is not Hawaii. Part-year or Nonresidents file Form N-15, Individual Income Tax Return (Nonresident and Part-Year Resident).
Military Personnel/Military Spouses
Residents: A member of the military who is an Hawaii resident must report all income no matter where he or she is stationed, including military pay. If the taxpayer was an Hawaii resident when entering the service, he or she remains an Hawaii resident until a new domicile is established. All pay received for active duty military service, to the extent it is included in federal AGI, is subtracted from income on Form N-11.
Nonresidents: A member of the military who is not a Hawaii resident but is stationed in Hawaii is not subject to Hawaii tax on military pay, but must report any other income earned in Hawaii.
Military spouses: Under the Military Spouses Residency Relief Act, a military spouse’s state of residence does not change when moving to a new state to be with a service member stationed there if the residence or domicile is the same for the service member and spouse.

Business Electronic Filing - Hawaii corporation (Form N-30), S corporation (Form N-35), and partnership (Form N-20) returns can be electronically filed. Hawaii fiduciary income tax return (Form N-40) is not supported for e-file and must be mailed.
