How to pay the state tax due?

PrePay through Form TC-546

  • Utah does not require quarterly estimated tax payments. You can mail your payment with form TC-546, Individual Income Tax Prepayment Coupon.

Note: Utah’s Individual Income Tax Prepayment Coupon, Form TC-546, should only be used if you need to make an extension payment for your Utah income tax. Do not use Form TC-546 if you have no Utah tax liability or if you’re due a Utah tax refund.

Prepay electronically

  • There are many free filing options available, even for taxpayers with higher incomes. Choose any of these for more information:
  • TAP – Taxpayer Access Point, the Utah State Tax Commission’s free online filing and payment system.

Does ExpressExtension support this State filing?  

The Utah tax extension is automatic. It means there is no official application or written request to submit.

Any Special Requirements?

An automatic extension of time to file is not an extension of time to pay. If you determine to owe tax, you need to meet the following Prepayment Requirements in order to be granted for a Utah tax extension — you must prepay by the original deadline (May 17):

• At least 90% of your Utah tax balance due for the current year; or
• 100% of your Utah tax liability for the prior year

If your Utah tax liability for the prior year was zero, or if you’re a first-time filer, then you are required to pay at least 90% of your current year’s Utah tax balance.
