New Jersey LLC & Partnership Tax Extension

New Jersey LLCs and partnerships with New Jersey source income must file Form NJ-1065 with the New Jersey Division of Taxation. The return is due March 16, 2026, and a six-month extension to September 15, 2026 is available–New Jersey automatically honors the federal Form 7004 extension for pass-through entities, eliminating the need for a separate state extension form. LLCs may also be eligible to make a Business Alternative Income Tax (BAIT) election, allowing the entity to pay New Jersey income tax at the entity level on behalf of its members.

Original Deadline March 16, 2026
Extended Deadline September 15, 2026
NJ Tax Due March 16 – Filing the extension does not postpone payment. New Jersey LLC and partnership tax owed, including any BAIT election amount, must be remitted by March 16, 2026 to avoid the 5%/month failure-to-pay penalty.

How to Extend a New Jersey LLC or Partnership Return

File IRS Form 7004 before March 16, 2026. New Jersey treats the federal extension as authorization to extend Form NJ-1065 to September 15, 2026 without a separate state filing. Pay any New Jersey LLC tax and BAIT amounts by March 16, 2026 through the New Jersey Division of Taxation online portal or by mail to: New Jersey Division of Taxation, Revenue Processing Center, P.O. Box 666, Trenton, NJ 08646-0666.

New Jersey also imposes a per-member filing fee on partnerships and multi-member LLCs–currently $150 per member up to $250,000. This annual fee is separate from income tax and is due with the NJ-1065 return. Confirm the fee amount and include it with your March 16, 2026 payment to avoid a separate penalty assessment.

Steps for a Smooth NJ LLC Extension

  • File IRS Form 7004 before March 16, 2026 to extend the New Jersey NJ-1065 return to September 15, 2026.
  • Pay New Jersey LLC income tax and any BAIT election amounts by March 16, 2026 via the NJ online payment portal or by mail.
  • Calculate and remit the New Jersey partnership filing fee with the extension payment to avoid a separate late charge.
  • Complete and submit Form NJ-1065 to the New Jersey Division of Taxation by September 15, 2026.

New Jersey Business Tax Extension – S Corporation

CBT-200-T / NJ-630 | New Jersey Division of Taxation Extension Request  •  S Corporation
Original deadline: March 16, 2026 Extended to: August 15, 2026 Extension: 5 months automatic

New Jersey S Corporation Tax Extension

New Jersey S corporations are subject to the Corporation Business Tax (CBT) under a separate New Jersey S corporation election–the federal S election alone is not sufficient to be treated as an S corporation for New Jersey purposes. New Jersey S corporations file Form CBT-100S and may owe a minimum CBT assessment or tax on certain built-in gains. The CBT-100S is due March 16, 2026, with a five-month extension to August 15, 2026 available by filing Form CBT-200-T or by obtaining a federal extension.

Original Deadline March 16, 2026
Extended Deadline August 15, 2026
NJ Tax Due March 16 – Form CBT-200-T or a federal extension extends the filing deadline only. Any New Jersey S corporation CBT owed must be paid by March 16, 2026 to avoid the 5%/month failure-to-pay penalty.

How to Extend a New Jersey S Corporation Return

To extend the CBT-100S, either file New Jersey Form CBT-200-T by March 16, 2026 or obtain a federal extension (IRS Form 7004). New Jersey will grant a five-month extension to August 15, 2026. Pay any New Jersey CBT owed by March 16, 2026 through the New Jersey Division of Taxation online portal or by mail to: New Jersey Division of Taxation, Revenue Processing Center, P.O. Box 666, Trenton, NJ 08646-0666. Note that S corporations that have not made a valid New Jersey S election will be treated as C corporations and file Form CBT-100 instead.

New Jersey S corporation shareholders who are New Jersey residents will continue to report their pro-rata share of S corporation income on their New Jersey individual returns. If those shareholders also need more time to file their personal returns, they must file a separate individual extension (Form NJ-630) by April 15, 2026.

NJ S Corporation Extension Checklist

  • Confirm your S corporation has a valid New Jersey S election on file before assuming CBT-100S treatment applies.
  • File IRS Form 7004 or New Jersey Form CBT-200-T before March 16, 2026 to extend the CBT-100S return to August 15, 2026.
  • Remit all New Jersey CBT owed by March 16, 2026 through the NJ online payment portal or by mail.
  • Submit the completed Form CBT-100S to the New Jersey Division of Taxation by August 15, 2026.

New Jersey Business Tax Extension – C Corporation

CBT-200-T / NJ-630 | New Jersey Division of Taxation Extension Request  •  C Corporation
Original deadline: April 15, 2026 Extended to: September 15, 2026 Extension: 5 months automatic

New Jersey C Corporation Tax Extension

New Jersey C corporations are subject to the Corporation Business Tax (CBT) assessed on New Jersey-allocated net income. The CBT rate structure ranges from 6.5% to 11.5%, with a 9% rate applying to most profitable corporations. C corporations file Form CBT-100 with the New Jersey Division of Taxation, due April 15, 2026. A five-month extension to September 15, 2026 is available by filing Form CBT-200-T (Application for Extension of Time to File) or by obtaining a federal extension, which New Jersey also honors for CBT purposes.

Original Deadline April 15, 2026
Extended Deadline September 15, 2026
NJ CBT Due April 15 – Form CBT-200-T extends the filing deadline only. New Jersey Corporation Business Tax owed must be paid by April 15, 2026 to avoid the 5%/month failure-to-pay penalty and separate 5% underpayment charge.

Requesting a New Jersey C Corporation Extension

File New Jersey Form CBT-200-T or IRS Form 7004 before April 15, 2026 to extend the CBT-100 return to September 15, 2026. Pay all New Jersey CBT owed by April 15, 2026 through the New Jersey Division of Taxation online portal or by mail to: New Jersey Division of Taxation, Revenue Processing Center, P.O. Box 666, Trenton, NJ 08646-0666. New Jersey C corporations subject to the Metropolitan Business Tax (MBT) surcharge should include the surcharge amount in the extension payment as well.

New Jersey requires corporations to use New Jersey-specific allocation formulas to determine the portion of net income subject to CBT. Corporations operating in multiple states must carefully calculate the New Jersey allocation factor using New Jersey's single-sales-factor formula before estimating the CBT extension payment.

New Jersey Business Tax Extension – Fiduciary

CBT-200-T / NJ-630 | New Jersey Division of Taxation Extension Request  •  Fiduciary
Original deadline: April 15, 2026 Extended to: October 15, 2026 Extension: 6 months automatic

New Jersey Fiduciary Tax Extension

New Jersey trusts and estates with New Jersey-source income file Form NJ-1041 with the New Jersey Division of Taxation. The NJ-1041 is due April 15, 2026, and a six-month extension to October 15, 2026 is available by filing Form NJ-630 (Application for Extension of Time to File New Jersey Gross Income Tax Return). Form NJ-630 must be filed by April 15, 2026–New Jersey does not accept the federal Form 7004 alone for fiduciary return extensions.

Original Deadline April 15, 2026
Extended Deadline October 15, 2026
File Form NJ-630 by April 15 – New Jersey requires its own fiduciary extension form (NJ-630). A federal extension alone does not extend the NJ-1041. Pay 80% of New Jersey fiduciary income tax owed with the NJ-630 to obtain the extension. Underpayment will result in the 5%/month penalty.

Requesting a New Jersey Fiduciary Extension

File New Jersey Form NJ-630 and also file IRS Form 7004 before April 15, 2026. Form NJ-630 extends the NJ-1041 filing deadline to October 15, 2026 when at least 80% of the New Jersey fiduciary income tax owed is paid with the form. Payments can be made through the New Jersey Division of Taxation online portal or mailed to: New Jersey Division of Taxation, Revenue Processing Center, P.O. Box 666, Trenton, NJ 08646-0666.

New Jersey taxes trust income differently depending on whether the trust is a resident trust or a nonresident trust. A New Jersey resident trust is taxed on all income regardless of source, while a nonresident trust pays New Jersey tax only on New Jersey-source income. Confirm the trust's residency classification before computing the NJ-1041 or extension payment.

NJ Fiduciary Extension Steps

  • File New Jersey Form NJ-630 by April 15, 2026 to extend the NJ-1041 to October 15, 2026–this is required; a federal extension alone is insufficient.
  • Pay at least 80% of New Jersey fiduciary income tax owed with the NJ-630 to qualify for the extension without penalty.
  • Confirm whether the trust is a New Jersey resident or nonresident trust to determine the correct tax base for the extension payment.
  • File the completed Form NJ-1041 with the New Jersey Division of Taxation by October 15, 2026.
