South Carolina offers extra tax relief due to Tropical Storm Debby

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WMBF) – The South Carolina Department of Revenue is granting relief to taxpayers across the state as a result of Tropical Storm Debby Debby.

The SCDOR said Wednesday that several returns and payments originally due between Aug. 4 and Feb. 3, 2025, will now be due Feb. 3, 2025.

Those returns and payments include:

• 2023 Income Tax returns from individuals, businesses, and tax-exempt organizations who had a valid extension to file their returns.
• Because tax payments related to 2023 Individual Income Tax returns were due April 15, 2024, those payments are not eligible for this relief.
• Quarterly Estimated Income Tax payments originally due on Sept. 16, 2024, Dec. 16, 2024 (for corporate taxpayers), and Jan. 15, 2025 (for non-corporate taxpayers).
• Certain quarterly Withholding Tax returns and payments, including those originally due on Oct. 31, 2024 and Jan. 31, 2025.

That relief applies to all 46 counties and, according to the SCDOT, follows the IRS’s lead in issuing relief due to the storm.

Taxpayers are not required to take any action, as the SCDOR with automatically provide the relief.

The Feb. 3, 2025 relief does not apply to other state taxes administered by the SCDOR.
