  • Franchot Extends State Income Tax Filing Deadline to July 15
    Franchot Extends State Income Tax Filing Deadline to July 15 State, federal pandemic relief programs require extensive changes to tax forms; all updates anticipated by April 15 ANNAPOLIS, Md. (March 11, 2021) - Using statutory authority granted to him, Comptroller Peter Franchot today announced that he is extending the state income tax filing deadline by three months until July 15, 2021. No interest or penalties will be assessed if returns are filed and taxes owed are paid by the new deadline. The extension, which applies to individual, pass-through, fiduciary and corporate income tax returns, including first and second quarter estimated payments, is due to recent and pending legislation at the state and federal levels that impact 2020 tax filings and provide economic relief for taxpayers harmed by the COVID19 pandemic. In Maryland, passage of the RELIEF Act in February required extensive revisions to previously released forms and software programs used by tax filers and tax software vendors. Legislative veto overrides that took place later than usual prompted additional changes. At the federal level, the passage of a third stimulus package this week necessitates more changes to federal and state forms even as the traditional April 15 tax filing deadline approaches. “We’ve never before seen so many changes to the current year’s tax code in the midst of the tax filing season,” Comptroller Franchot said. “We’re realistic about the burden this puts on taxpayers, tax preparers and our staff, which is why I’m taking this emergency action to extend the tax filing deadline to July 15.” As of now, the Internal Revenue Service has kept its filing and payment deadline at April 15.

  • Tax Alert 03-11-2021 Extension of Time to File and Waiver of Interest
    03-11-2021 Extension of Time to File and Waiver of Interest and Penalty for Certain Filers During the current 2021 legislative session, the Maryland General Assembly has taken several legislative actions which revised certain income tax laws applicable tax year 2020 and also required modifications to both sales and use tax and tobacco tax filings beginning with March 2021 tax periods1. Additionally, federal legislation2 has been passed that will further impact tax year 2020 individual income tax forms. The timing of these legislative actions requires the Comptroller to make changes to previously published tax forms and to publish updated tax forms after taxpayers and tax professionals have begun to file tax year 2020 returns. In order to allow adequate time to develop new tax forms to properly administer the new and revised tax laws, and to allow Maryland taxpayers to take advantage of newly enacted relief provisions on their tax year 2020 filings, the Comptroller finds reasonable cause to extend certain filing due dates. Furthermore, as many taxpayers cannot accurately determine the correct amount of tax to pay until revised forms become available, the Comptroller finds reasonable cause to abate interest and late payment penalty for a limited period of time for taxpayers who owe certain taxes affected by the tax law changes. Therefore, effective immediately, the Comptroller of Maryland is granting a limited, temporary extension to file certain tax returns and will abate certain interest and late payment penalties that may accrue as a result of this extension as detailed below in this Alert. Income Taxes The Recovery for the Economy, Livelihoods, Industries, Entrepreneurs, and Families (RELIEF) Act, which was signed into law on February 15, 2021 created multiple new tax provisions.

  • Health Department Announces First Annual Pool Safely Day on July 15
    July 13, 2021 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Health Department Announces First Annual Pool Safely Day on July 15 to Promote Water Safety DuPage County— On Thursday, July 15, 2021, the DuPage County Health Department (DCHD) and more than 30 Illinois agencies and organizations will participate in the first annual Pool Safely Day to raise public awareness around water safety and prevent child drownings. “As families enjoy beaches, pools, lakes, and other bodies of water, we urge parents and caregivers to be particularly vigilant and Pool Safely to keep children safe and avoid any potential tragedies this summer,” said Karen Ayala, Executive Director of DuPage County Health Department. Drowning continues to be a leading cause of unintentional death for children. This year, six Illinois children have drowned in pools or open water, according to news media reports. Of these tragic deaths, four were pool-related and among children ages 1 to 5. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reports that across the nation, between 2016 and 2018, 75 percent of reported fatal drownings involved children under age five, and the majority of these drownings occurred in residential pools. Additionally, 18 Illinois children, ages 1 to 16, have fatally drowned since June of 2020. It is of note that 16 of the 18 Illinois children who drowned were boys. Children (ages 6 to 11) and adolescents (ages 12 to 17) are more likely to drown in open water, such as retention ponds, rivers, inland lakes, and Lake Michigan. This Pool Safely Day there is one focus, to keep children safer when around water.
