How to pay the state tax due?
You can make a state tax payment using any of the following options:
- Electronic payment: Choose to pay directly from your bank account or by credit card. Service provider fees may apply.
- Check or Money Order- Use Form 40A102 to make a payment. You should only use Form 40A102 if you don’t have a Federal tax extension.
Note: If you have a valid Federal extension, make a copy of the lower portion of IRS Form 4868 and send that with your payment to the Kentucky Department of Revenue.
Does ExpressExtension support this State filing?
No, currently, we do not support this state filing. If you are looking for an e-file solution for Federal Form 4868, you can file your extension and get approval within minutes with ExpressExtension. Please Note: An extension to file doesn’t mean more time to pay, if you owe any tax due, make your tax payment by the original due date of your state return to avoid late payment penalties.
Any Special Requirements?
To apply for a Kentucky personal extension, you must submit a written request to the Kentucky Department of Revenue by the original deadline of your tax return. The Department will grant an extension if you provide “reasonable cause” for your inability to file on time.
