To make an electronic payment using e-Check or Credit Card, you will need the following information:

  • Tax type (M&R)
  • Payment type (Estimate, Return, Amended return and tax notice payments)
  • Taxable period
  • Total payment
  • For payment by e-Check:
    • Bank account type (checking or savings)
    • Bank routing number
    • Bank account number
  • For payment by Credit Card:
    • Cardholder name
    • Email address

Calculate this penalty starting from the original due date of the return until the date a complete return is filed.

To calculate interest, use the following formula:

Amount of Tax Due X Daily Decimal Rate X Number of Days Late Per Period

For Example:
On August 15, 2013, you file your May 2012 Meals and Rentals Tax Return payment of $1000.00, which was due June 15, 2012. The interest due is calculated as follows:

Amount of Tax Due: X Daily Decimal Rate X Number of Days Late Per Tax Period = Interest Amount
$1000.00 X .000164 X 198 Days ( 6/16/2012 - 12/31/2012) = $32.47
$1000.00 X .000137 X 227 Days ( 1/1/2013 - 8/15/2013) = $31.10
  Total Interest Amount = $63.57

The New Hampshire statutes governing interest rates were amended in 1995 [CH 268] to require that starting on January 1, 1998, and determined annually thereafter, the New Hampshire interest rates would be based upon the rates set by the federal government under Internal Revenue Code § 6621(a)(2). RSA 21-J: 28, II provides that the "annual underpayment rate" is tied to the underpayment rate specified in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as in effect on the September 1 immediately preceding such calendar year, plus 2 percentage points. RSA 21-J:28, III provides that the "overpayment rate" (the interest rate paid on refunds) is to be 3 percentage points less than the rate set in RSA 21-J:28, paragraph II.

Enter the amount of penalties that you are paying.

  • Failure to Pay: A penalty equal to 10% of any nonpayment of taxes shall be imposed if the taxpayer fails to pay the tax when due. If the failure to pay is due to fraud, the penalty shall be 50% of the amount of the nonpayment or underpayment.
  • Failure to File: A taxpayer failing to timely file a complete return may be subject to a penalty equal to 5% of the tax due or $10, whichever is greater, for each month or part thereof that the return remains unfiled or incomplete. The total amount of this penalty shall not exceed 25% of the balance of tax due or $50, whichever is greater. Calculate this penalty starting from the original due date of the return until the date a complete return is being filed.

Taxpayers are advised of New Hampshire Statute RSA 21-J:33-a. Substantial Understatement Penalty as follows:

If there is a substantial understatement of tax imposed under RSA 77, RSA 77-A, RSA 77-E, RSA 78-A, RSA 78-C, RSA 82-A or RSA 83-C, or RSA 83-E, for any taxable period, there shall be added to the tax an amount equal to 25 percent of the amount of any underpayment attributable to such understatement. There is a substantial understatement of tax for any taxable period if the amount of the understatement for the taxable period exceeds the greater of 10 percent of the tax required to be shown on the return for the taxable period or $5,000.

If your return requires adequate disclosure, you cannot use e-File, please file a paper return.
