NYSSEA learned late yesterday that the NYS Department of Taxation & Finance’s Notice N-20-8 is incorrect. 

https://www.tax.ny.gov/pdf/notices/n20-8.pdf

The notice says that the 1 ^st  quarter estimated tax payment is due 6/15 and the 2 ^nd  quarter 7/15, but in fact, it’s the opposite. The 1st quarter payment is due 7/15, and the 2 ^nd  quarter is (was) due 6/15.

NYSSEA strongly urged NYSDTF to notify taxpayers and the tax professional community promptly.
