If you did not participate in Tax Amnesty 2026, the window to do so is closed. You may incur additional penalties on any liabilities that were eligible for amnesty and have not been paid in full or assigned to a payment plan.
If you are on a payment plan, it is important to check your balance regularly to ensure all payments are going through as scheduled and that there have not been unexpected changes to your amnesty balance.

Benefits, Fees, and Penalties
- What if I was eligible but did not participate in Tax Amnesty 2026?
If you were eligible for Tax Amnesty 2026 and chose not to participate, you may incur additional penalties on eligible periods. Those currently protesting a liability or in an existing payment plan will not face additional penalties for not participating.
- Are liens forgiven due to completing Tax Amnesty 2026?
Any related liens on amnesty-eligible liabilities will only be released once the liabilities are paid in full.
Appeals & Hardships
- Do I forfeit my tax notice appeal if I pay my tax bill under amnesty?
If you had an appeal or protest in progress prior to Tax Amnesty 2026, you were placed in a hold status. However, if you opted not to participate in amnesty, you will not benefit from the waiver of penalties, interest, and collection fees currently part of your protested liability via amnesty. If you paid the liability under Tax Amnesty 2026, you waive the right to appeal/protest that liability.
- I could not pay all the taxes I owe during the Tax Amnesty 2026 period. Will the department penalize me for this?
You will be penalized for not paying off your amnesty-eligible liabilities if you did not pay in full or enter into an amnesty payment plan by Sept. 9, 2026. Amnesty payment plans must be completed by June 7, 2027, to avoid additional penalties. Those whose amnesty-eligible liability was under protest during the Tax Amnesty 2026 window or who had a pre-existing payment plan will not face additional penalties for not participating.
- In the event of severe financial or medical hardship, can I receive an extension of the June 7, 2027, payment plan deadline?
There are no extensions available for the Tax Amnesty 2026 program. You can contact TAO for assistance outside of amnesty terms.
- Am I still able to file an expungement request for amnesty-eligible liabilities?
Yes. You would need to log into INTIME or use the Expungement Request Form. If you are engaging in an amnesty payment plan, you cannot request an expungement until your final amnesty payment has posted. All requests for expungement connected to Tax Amnesty 2026 are due by June 7, 2027. You can find more information on the Expungement Request Form page.
