Frequently asked questions
Does Tennessee have a state income tax?
Tennessee does not levy a broad individual income tax, so there is no state individual return due in 2027. You still need to file your federal return, and any state business, franchise, or excise taxes that apply to you.
What deadlines still apply in 2027 if I live in Tennessee?
Your federal deadlines still apply: the 2026 Form 1040 is due April 15, 2027, with an extension to October 15, 2027, and 2027 federal estimated payments are due April 15, 2027, June 15, 2027, September 15, 2027, January 18, 2028.
