CT-1041V: Connecticut Electronic Filing Payment Voucher (2024)
Connecticut · Connecticut DRS · Used for tax years 2024
Form CT-1041V is Connecticut’s 2024 payment voucher for trusts and estates that filed their income tax return electronically and pay by check. It identifies the trust or estate and fiduciary and records the payment amount.
Who files this form
Use the 2024 Form CT-1041V if you filed a Connecticut income tax return for a trust or estate electronically and choose to pay by check. This form is a payment voucher, not the income tax return.
When it's due
For tax year 2024, the voucher states that the total tax due must be paid by the fifteenth day of the fourth month after the taxable year closes. It lists April 15 for calendar-year filers.
Any unpaid balance is subject to penalty and interest. Paying electronically does not remove the requirement to file the return by its due date.
What you'll need
To complete the voucher, have:
- The name of the trust or estate and its Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN).
- The fiduciary’s name, title, and mailing address.
- The payment amount.
For payment by mail, include a signed check with the completed 2024 voucher. Do not include a paper copy of the Connecticut income tax return for the trust or estate.
How to file
Pay by mail
- Complete the 2024 voucher in blue or black ink.

- Write “2024 CT-1041V e-file” on the front of the check. You may also write the trust or estate’s FEIN, which is optional on the check.
