Frequently Asked Questions
Maryland Form 500E, Application for Extension to File Corporation Income Tax Return, is used by corporations to request an extension to file their Maryland Form 500.
- Extension period: Up to 7 months
- Filing deadline: 15th day of the fourth month following the close of the tax year
- The extension gives more time to file the return, not pay the tax due.
If tax is due, the corporation must make the required payment with the extension.
Maryland Form 510/511E, Application for Extension to File Pass-Through Entity Income Tax Return, is used to extend the filing deadline for Maryland Form 510 or Form 511.
It applies to:
- S Corporations
- Partnerships
- Limited Liability Companies
- Business Trusts
Composite return filers should not use Form 510/511E. Instead, they must use Form EL102B to request an extension for filing a Maryland composite income tax return.
Maryland Form 504E, Application for Extension to File Fiduciary Income Tax Return, provides an automatic six-month extension to file Maryland Form 504 for an estate or trust.
To receive the extension, the fiduciary must complete Form 504E correctly, file it by the required deadline, and pay the full balance shown on the form. The extension provides additional time to file the return but does not extend the time to pay taxes.
The extension period depends on the type of business:
- Corporations: Up to 7 months with Form 500E.
- S corporations: Up to 7 months with Form 510/511E.
- Partnerships, LLCs, and business trusts: 6 months with Form 510/511E.
- Estates and trusts: 6 months with Form 504E.
The applicable extension must be filed by the original due date.
No. A Maryland filing extension does not extend the payment deadline. Any tax due must be paid by the original due date to avoid applicable interest and penalties.
For Form 504E, the instructions require payment of the full balance shown on the form to receive the extension.
No. Maryland does not allow consolidated corporate returns. Affiliated corporations that file a consolidated federal return must file a separate Maryland extension for each member corporation.
If you need to mail the extension form with payment, send it to:
Comptroller of Maryland
Revenue Administration Division
110 Carroll Street
Annapolis, MD 21411-0001
For Form 504E, make the check or money order payable to the Comptroller of Maryland. Include the FEIN, tax year, and tax type on the payment.
