Due Date

The due date for paying your income taxes has passed. You have until October 15, 2012 to file your taxes. See Filing Extensions and Prepayment Requirements for more information.

How Do I File Electronically?

Nothing beats e-filing for easy, accurate filing and quick refunds. Choose one of the following to e-file your returns:

• Talk to your tax preparer
• Use commercial tax software or online sites
• Try our FREE online service at taxexpress.utah.gov 

How Do I Get an Income Tax Booklet?

Because most people now file electronically, the Tax Commission no longer automatically mails the income tax forms to everyone. If you need forms or instructions, the following links will help:

• TC-40 Form – just the form
• TC-40 Instructions – just the instructions
• TC-40 Packet – common forms and instructions, including TC-40

• All forms and publications
• Obtaining forms by postal mail
