Division of TaxationThe creation of a new simplified standardized return for combined groups, banking corporations, financial business corporations, and separate return filers designed to replace the CBT-100U, BFC-1, and CBT-100 is underway. However, due to the combination of significant changes to Corporation Business Tax reporting and administration over the last several years, coupled with technical challenges, implementation of the new form is now expected to be effective starting with the 2022 tax year. The divisions of Taxation, and Revenue and Enterprise Services, are committed to providing the best, modernized, and standardized return for these entities with privilege periods ending on or after July 31, 2022.
P.L. 2018, c. 48, and P.L. 2018, c. 131 made significant changes to the Corporation Business Tax Act. P.L. 2020, c. 118, which was signed into law on November 4, 2020, also made a series of technical corrections, clarifications, and changes. The Division is in the process drafting information regarding these changes. Information will continue to be posted as it becomes available.
