State tax filing

While there is not much detail here, but regardless, you should probably meet with a tax professional to have a one-on-one as this type of question is really beyond the scope of a forum such as this.

But in general:

  • First, the deductibility will depend on your method of accounting.
    • If cash method, it is cut and dry.  Deductible when paid.
    • If accrual, the issue becomes a bit more complicated.
  • For accrual method taxpayer's you need to look at the economic performance provisions along with the possibility of the recurring-item exception.
  • As a result of bullet two, that is why it is best to meet with a tax professional.
