The Alabama Department of Revenue made a few changes for the 2020 tax year.
The tax calculation if you have credits is now consolidated onto Schedule OC. Also, some credit schedules are now calculated directly on the Schedule OC instead of on separate schedules. A new section on this form also will calculate any carryforward credits.
A new adjustment is available for insurance premiums paid for cancer insurance coverage of a certified Alabama firefighter if they were not already deducted on the federal return.
Due to the IRS adjusting the federal filing deadline, the Alabama Department of Revenue has adjusted their April 15, 2021 tax deadline to May 17, 2021. This new deadline applies to both taxes owed and tax returns (not estimated payments for 2021).

An extension extends the time you have to file your return by 6 months. The extension deadline has not changed even with the April 15 deadline being moved to May 17. Your Alabama extended return will still be due on October 15, 2020. Alabama automatically grants a 6-month extension. No form is filed. If you need to pay taxes, you are required to pay the amount due by May 17, 2021.
You need to pay 90% of your taxes by May 17, 2021. If you pay late, you may be charged penalties and interest on unpaid taxes.
Even though the deadline has passed, you can still prepare Alabama taxes for prior years. Many people who file late tax returns have refunds waiting for them. We'll help you prepare and mail your federal and state tax returns.
