Can I get an extension for my Massachusetts Partnership tax return?

Yes. Massachusetts allows an extension for Partnership returns until Sep 15, 2026. Note that an extension gives you more time to file, not more time to pay — any tax owed is still due by the original deadline of Mar 16, 2026.

What are the penalties for filing late in Massachusetts?

Massachusetts typically charges a failure-to-file penalty (usually 5% of unpaid tax per month, up to 25%) and a failure-to-pay penalty (usually 0.5-1% per month).
