Reference the important dates below and be sure to speak to your tax professional, so you can plan ahead with confidence and keep your finances on track.

Note: If the due date for making an estimated tax payment falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, the payment will be on time if you make it on the next day that's not a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday.
State Estimate Tax Due Dates
You will need to check with your individual state's tax agency for their specific deadlines, as they might differ from the federal due dates; ie. the tax agency for NYS is NYS Department of Taxation and Finance.
