Submit an SC1120-T. 2. Pay ALL of the Corporate Income Tax due. 3. Pay ALL of the Corporate License Fee due. If the corporation has not fulfilled its filing requirements for any previous period, we cannot grant an extension, and the return will be delinquent if it is not filed by the original due date. We will not send notice of the invalid extension. If you do not anticipate owing tax, and you requested a federal extension of time to file your federal Income Tax return, we will accept a copy of the properly filed federal extension as long as the Corporate return is received within the extended time allowed by the IRS. Only one SC1120-T is needed to extend a South Carolina consolidated Corporate Tax return. A single payment may be made for the entire consolidated group. You do not need to list each member included in the consolidated return. We will accept a federal extension if all corporations in the consolidated group have filed or are included in a federal extension. An underpayment penalty will apply if the extension payment is less than 90% of the actual amount due for the period. The penalty is based on the difference between the amount paid and the amount due. This penalty applies from the date the tax was due until you pay in full. TAX COMPUTATION WORKSHEET 1.

Most corporations owe an annual License Fee under SC Code Section 12-20-50. The License Fee is equal to $15 plus an additional 0.1% of capital stock and paid-in or capital surplus of the corporation, based on the corporation's records on the first day of the tax year. When a corporation does business or uses its capital partly within and partly outside of South Carolina, apportion the License Fee using the same apportionment ratio used for Income Tax purposes. The minimum License Fee is $25. A waterworks company, power company, electric cooperative, light company, gas company, telephone company, telegraph company, express company, street railway company, or navigation company owes a License Fee under SC Code Section 12-20-100, equal to: • 0.1% of fair market value of property owned and used within South Carolina in the conduct of business, as determined by the SCDOR for Property Tax purposes for the prior taxable year; plus • 0.3% of gross receipts derived from services rendered from regulated business within South Carolina during the prior taxable year. For electric cooperatives, this component only applies to distribution electric cooperatives. Entities not taxed as corporations under Subchapter C or S of the Internal Revenue Code are not responsible for Corporate License Fees. Corporations listed in SC Code Section 12-20-110 are also exempt. SC Code Sections are available at dor.sc.gov/policy. Line 3: Add line 1 and line 2 and enter this amount on the SC1120-T as your payment amount. When you file your Corporate Tax return, mark the Extension box on the front of the return to let us know you filed a state or federal extension. Claim the amount paid with your SC1120-T on the appropriate Income Tax or License Fee Paid with Extension line of your Corporate Income Tax return.

South Carolina usually releases forms for the current tax year between January and April. We last updated South Carolina Form SC1120T from the Department of Revenue in February 2024.
Form SC1120T is a South Carolina Corporate Income Tax form. The IRS and most states will grant an automatic 6-month extension of time to file income tax and other types of tax returns, which can be obtained by filing the proper extension request form. Obtaining an extension will prevent you from being subject to often very large failure-to-file penalties. However, in most cases this extension does not exempt you from the requirement to pay any tax owed in full by the return's original filing date.
About the Corporate Income Tax
The IRS and most states require corporations to file an income tax return, with the exact filing requirements depending on the type of company.
Sole proprietorships or disregarded entities like LLCs are filed on Schedule C (or the state equivalent) of the owner's personal income tax return, flow-through entities like S Corporations or Partnerships are generally required to file an informational return equivilent to the IRS Form 1120S or Form 1065, and full corporations must file the equivalent of federal Form 1120 (and, unlike flow-through corporations, are often subject to a corporate tax liability).
Additional forms are available for a wide variety of specific entities and transactions including fiduciaries, nonprofits, and companies involved in other specific types of business.
