Arizona State Business Tax Extension Filing Instructions
554 views | Last modified 3/17/2023 8:19:36 AM EST | Added by ExpressExtension Team

Arizona doesn’t require businesses (C-Corporations, S-Corporations, partnerships, and fiduciaries) to file a separate Business tax extension form if they have an approved federal extension from filing Form 7004. The extended deadline for your Arizona return will be the same as the extended deadline for your Federal tax return.

If the federal extension was rejected or the business didn’t apply for a federal extension, they can file a separate Arizona business tax extension Form before the original due date of your Arizona tax return to get an extension of time to file the Arizona business income tax return.

Extension Form to use    

  • Form 120EXT, Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File Corporation, Partnership, and Exempt Organization Return.
  • Form 141AZ EXT, Application for Filing Extension For Fiduciary Returns
