If you were approved for a federal tax extension then the State of Utah will automatically grant you a six month tax extension. If you need to make a state tax payment, you'll need to submit Utah Form TC-546 (PDF).

Filing your Utah 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 penalites.

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

The State of Utah will automatically grant your business a 6 month tax extension if it makes the necessary extension payment by the return due date. The estimated tax payments must equal at least the lesser of:
1) 90 percent of the current-year tax liability or the $100 minimum tax, if greater), or
2) 100 percent of the previous-year tax liability.

The remaining tax, plus any penalty and interest, is due when the return is filed. The Tax Commission will assess a penalty for failure to meet the extension payment requirements. Utah will also assess penalties if you file your return after the six-month extension period.

If you do not need to make a tax payment and have received an approval notification from ExpressExtension, there’s nothing more to do.

Filing for a Utah 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.
