Extensions – To receive an automatic extension until October 15, file Form 204, Application for Filing Extension. Arizona will also accept the federal extension for the period covered by the federal extension. When filing the Arizona return, check box 82F, top of page 1, to indicate an extension was filed. To mark the box, from the main menu of the Arizona return select Personal Information > Other Categories > Type of Extension.
Driver’s License/Government Issued Photo Identification: Arizona does not require this information to file the tax return.

Arizona does not require the same filing status used on the federal return. Currently Keystone Tax Solutions Pro does not support a different filing status for Arizona.
Residency Status Information for Arizona Returns
Residents: Residents are individuals who are domiciled in Arizona even if the individual is outside Arizona for a temporary or transitory purpose. Individuals who spend more than nine months of the taxable year within Arizona are presumed to be residents. A.R.S. §43-104.
Part-year resident: A part-year resident is a person who moved into Arizona during the year intending to become an Arizona resident or moved out of Arizona with the intent of giving up Arizona residency.
Nonresidents: Nonresidents are individuals whose permanent domicile is not Arizona.
American Indian: An American Indian must file an Arizona tax return unless (1) the individual is an enrolled member of an Indian tribe, (2) the individual lived on the reservation established for that tribe, and (3) all income was earned on that reservation.
Military Personnel/Military Spouses
Residents: A member of the military who is an Arizona resident must report all income no matter where he or she is stationed, including military pay. If the taxpayer was an Arizona resident when entering the service, he or she remains an Arizona resident until a new domicile is established. All pay received for active duty military service, to the extent it is included in federal AGI, is subtracted from income on Form 140.
Nonresidents: A member of the military who is not an Arizona resident, but is stationed in Arizona, is not subject to Arizona tax on military pay, but must report any other income earned in Arizona.
Military spouses:Under the Military Spouses Residency Relief Act, a military spouse’s state of residence does not change when moving to a new state to be with a service member stationed there if the residence or domicile is the same for the service member and spouse.

Business Extensions
Corporation/S-Corporation – A request for an extension of time to file an Arizona corporate income tax return must be submitted by the original due date of the return. The extension request can be made by filing an Arizona extension request, Form 120EXT. The department will also accept a valid federal extension for the same period of time covered by the federal extension. Form 120EXT cannot be electronically filed. Mail Form 120EXT to the appropriate address. (See mailing addresses below)
Partnership – A request for an extension of time to file an Arizona partnership return must be submitted by the original due date of the return. The extension request can be made by filing a federal extension request, or by filing an Arizona extension request, Form 120EXT.
Fiduciary – Arizona will grant a 5 ½ month extension. Request an extension if you know you will not be able to file on time. An extension does not extend the time to pay the income tax. Failure to pay at least 90% of the tax due by the original due date will result in a penalty. To get a filing extension, either:
- Apply for a state extension (Form 141AZ EXT). To apply for an automatic 5 ½ month state extension, file Form 141AZ EXT by the due date of the return.
- Use the federal extension. File the Arizona return by the same due date. A copy of the extension does not need to be filed with the return, but make sure the extension box 82E on page 1 of the return is marked.
