As the economic recovery continues from the impact of COVID-19, the New
Hampshire Department of Revenue Administration (NHDRA) is offering low and moderate
income homeowners the opportunity to apply for property tax relief. NHDRA is accepting
applications for its Low and Moderate Income Homeowners Property Tax Relief program
through June 30, 2021.
After much consideration and review, the tax deadline for the State of New Hampshire will remain April 15, 2021. We feel any extension to the April 15, 2021 due date, even by one month, risks causing confusion and does not offer meaningful relief to taxpayers who will still need to complete their 2020 tax return in order to calculate the estimated tax payment that continues to be due on April 15, 2021. Instead, the NHDRA will focus on offering taxpayers excellent customer service and assisting them in taking advantage of the several existing options for New Hampshire taxpayers that need additional time to file their returns.
