If you were approved for a federal tax extension, then the State of South Carolina will automatically grant you a six-month tax extension. If you need to make a state tax payment, you'll need to submit South Carolina Form SC4868 (PDF). Attach a copy of your extension form with your state tax return when filed.

Filing for a South Carolina tax extension does not grant you extra time to pay any tax balance due. Your balance must be paid by April 15 to avoid possible penalties.

If you already received an approval notification from ExpressExtension, and you don't need to make a tax payment, then you're all done.

For more information, visit the State of South Carolina Department of Revenue website.

The State of South Carolina will automatically grant your business a 6-month tax extension if it was approved for a federal tax extension. However, you need to submit South Carolina tax extension form (listed below) if your business needs to make a state tax payment or if it was not approved for a federal extension.

If you do not need to make a tax payment and have received an approval notification from ExpressExtension, there’s nothing more to do. Be sure to attach a copy of your extension form with your state tax return when filed.

Filing for a South Carolina tax extension will not provide you with additional time to pay any tax balance due, which must be paid by your original filing deadline or interest and other payment penalties may apply.
