Massachusetts allows an automatic 6-month extension without filing an application if 80% of total tax liability is paid by the return due date. A taxpayer needing to file an extension or make a payment can complete Form M-4868, Massachusetts Income Tax Extension Payment Worksheet and Voucher.
To complete Form M-4868 in TaxSlayer ProWeb, from the Massachusetts Return menu select:
- Miscellaneous Forms
- Form M-4868 - Application for Automatic Six-Month Extension
Note: Electronic filing is not supported for the state extension in ProWeb. It will have to be mailed.
