TAX COMPUTATION WORKSHEET
Instructions for Tax Computation Worksheet: Complete the worksheet to calculate the amount to be paid with the Line 1: Enter the amount of Income Tax you expect to owe for the current tax year (the amount you expect to enter on the tax return when you file). Use good judgment in estimating the amount you owe. To avoid the failure to pay penalty, you must pay at least 90% of the tax due by the due date of the return, and pay the balance due when you file your return within the extended time period.
Line 2: Enter your total payments and credits.
Line 3: An extension of time to file your tax return will not extend the time to pay your Income Tax. Enter this amount on your SC8736 as your payment amount.
If you anticipate that you will not owe tax, and you requested an extension of time to file your Federal Income Tax return, we will accept a copy of the properly-filed federal extension if your Partnership or Fiduciary return is received within the extended time allowed by the IRS.
Interest and penalty for failure to pay tax: The extension of time to file your South Carolina tax return granted by this request for a filing extension DOES NOT extend the time to pay tax. Any unpaid portion of the final tax due will be subject to interest at the prevailing federal rates. This amount is computed from the original due date of the tax return to the date of payment. In addition to the interest, a penalty at the rate of 0.5% per month to maximum of 25% will be charged when the amount paid with the extension fails to reflect at least 90% of the tax due by the due date. The penalty will be imposed on the difference between the amount paid with the extension and the total tax due for the period.
