Department of Revenue Waiving Penalties, Offering Tax Extensions.
DENVER - Following the recent flooding in southwestern Colorado, the Department of Revenue is helping affected businesses by offering tax extensions.
More Time to File and Pay Taxes
The Department of Revenue extended the deadlines for some state tax filings to December 31. This applies to sales taxes that are due on November 20 and December 20.
Taxpayers can ask for penalty waivers for other taxes and fees due during November, including, for example, marijuana, fuel, and the retailer delivery fee, by contacting the department. Taxpayers affected by the floods have until December 31, 2026, to file these taxes. This relief is for state taxes only. It does not apply in cities or counties that collect their own taxes.
