​​The Florida Department of Revenue will follow the tax relief granted by the Internal Revenue Service for affected taxpayers regarding tax return due dates. Eligible taxpayers that file Florida corporate income/franchise tax returns with original due dates or extended due dates falling on or after September 23, 2024, and before May 16, 2025, will now have a due date of May 16, 2025. This means that affected taxpayers with returns and payments with due dates postponed until Feb. 18, 2025, due to Hurricane Debby in Florida will also now have until May 16, 2025, to file. The same holds true for affected taxpayers in counties that had due dates postponed for the Severe Storms, Straight-line Winds, and Tornadoes in May of 2024.


This tax relief is applicable to all affected businesses, including those within the following Florida counties:

During the 2024 legislative session, ​state lawmakers approved a plan for disposition of the Hillsborough transportation surtax collected between January 1, 2019, and March 15, 2021. The surtax was passed by Hillsborough County voters in 2018 and ruled unconstitutional by the Florida Supreme Court in 2021. The court signed an order providing for preliminary approval of the class action settlement. The hearing for the final approval of the settlement is scheduled for Nov​ember 7, 2024.


Hillsborough County residents and non-residents who can verify taxable expenditures with receipts or other documentation will receive compensation equal to the amount of their surtax payments. Alternatively, if you lived in Hillsborough County anytime during 2019 to March 15, 2021, and either cannot or do not wish to provide proof of taxable purchases, you can claim a standard award of up to $100 if you can establish your residency for some or all of the time the surtax was imposed. To receive a refund, eligible persons must submit a claim via www.FLTaxRefund.com​ by December 31, 2024. For questions, a call center for the Hillsborough County Settlement Administrator can be reached at 1-888-715-9373.


In addition, once the final approval of the settlement occurs, the Department of Revenue will issue a Tax Information Publication regarding a temporary suspension of the Hillsborough 0.5 percent indigent care surtax and the Hillsborough 0.5 percent local government infrastructure surtax. This temporary suspension is anticipated to begin January 1, 2025.​
