Who files this form

For tax year 2024, partnerships and S corporations should return DR 0158-N only if they need to make an additional tax payment. Payments are generally required when filing a composite return or a return making an election under the SALT Parity Act.

The filing extension is automatic. Do not file this form if no payment is due. You also do not need to send it if you pay online.

When it's due

For the 2024 return, the form lists these deadlines:

  • Regular filing deadline: The fifteenth day of the fourth month after the tax year ends, or April 15 for calendar-year filers.
  • Extended filing deadline: An additional six months, or October 15 for calendar-year filers.
  • Payment deadline: The extension does not extend the payment due date. If the due date falls on a weekend or legal holiday, payment is due the next business day.

Penalty and interest are assessed if certain payment criteria are not met. The form refers readers to Tax Topics: Penalties and Interest for details.
