Questions

Nebraska tax FAQs

10 answers about taxes in Nebraska.

Do you prepare Nebraska state tax returns?

Yes. We prepare resident, part-year and nonresident Nebraska returns and file them with the Nebraska Department of Revenue, together with your federal return.

When are Nebraska individual returns due?

Many states follow the federal April 15 deadline, but some set their own dates. We track the Nebraska Department of Revenue deadlines for you and file extensions when they are needed.

Does Nebraska have a sales tax?

Yes. Nebraska charges sales tax, and local rates can add to the state rate. We help Nebraska businesses register, collect the right rate and file returns with the Nebraska Department of Revenue.

What payroll registrations does a Nebraska employer need?

Employers generally register with Nebraska for unemployment insurance and state income tax withholding, plus any other state payroll programs that apply. We handle the registrations and the ongoing filings.

Do I need to make Nebraska estimated tax payments?

If you have income without enough withholding, such as self-employment or investment income, Nebraska generally expects estimated payments during the year, with its own thresholds and due dates. We calculate federal and state payments together.

How are LLCs and corporations taxed in Nebraska?

Nebraska applies its own rules to LLCs, S corporations and C corporations, and in some cases charges franchise, gross receipts or minimum taxes regardless of profit. We review how your entity is treated in Nebraska before you form it or make an election.

I moved into or out of Nebraska. What do I file?

Usually a part-year return for each state you lived in during the year, with credits so the same income is not taxed twice. Our multi-state filing service handles this.

Can you represent me with the Nebraska Department of Revenue?

Yes. In addition to IRS matters, we respond to notices and audits from the Nebraska Department of Revenue when you authorize us to.

Can a Nebraska business work with BATS remotely?

Yes. We work with Nebraska businesses through video meetings, secure document upload and cloud accounting software, so there is no need to visit an office.

Which Nebraska cities do you serve?

We have dedicated pages for Omaha, Lincoln, Bellevue, Grand Island, and we work with clients anywhere in Nebraska.
