The Massachusetts Department of Revenue (DOR) will conduct a tax amnesty program from November 1, 2024, through December 30, 2024. Withholding tax is included in the amnesty program; paid family and medical leave contributions are not included.
Employers must submit an Amnesty Request on MassTaxConnect, pay the total tax and interest due, and file all required returns by December 30, 2024. Most penalties will be waived by the DOR.
The amnesty program runs from November 1 to December 30. However, employers can submit an Amnesty Request for all filing periods with a return due on or before December 31, 2024.
Electronic payments, made by credit card, debit card, or ACH debit will be accepted.
