How can I get an extension for additional time to file the Ohio estate tax return?
A. If additional time is needed, the estate representative may apply for an extension of time to file by submitting E.T. Form 24, directly to the Estate Tax Division before the 15 month due date of the return. An extension, if granted, is for a maximum of six months per request. If the estate becomes taxable, an estimated payment must be made in a timely manner (within 9 months from the date of death) with the County Auditor’s Office by filing an E.T. Form 17 in duplicate.
