Enlarge image | FORM NP-1 DUE DATE: The Form NP-1, Net Profit License Fee Return, must be filed and all fees paid on or before the fifteenth day of the fourth month following the close of the licensee’s federal tax year. EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE FORM NP-1: IMPORTANT NOTE: When filing for an extension of time, that includes a payment, the licensee must indicate if the request is for the City of Owensboro, Daviess County or is a combined request for both.Any payment made with a combined request must specifically identify the amount being paid on behalf of each jurisdiction. An automatic extension of six months will be granted to any business entity for filing its Net Profit License Fee Return if the business entity, on or before the date prescribed for payment of the occupational license fee, requests the extension and pays the amount properly estimated as its fee. No standard form for requesting an extension of time for filing is prescribed. Any written communication from the applicant, or his attorney or accountant, which clearly states the request, when accompanied with proper payment, will be acceptable if filed on or before the due date involved. Federal forms 4868, 8736 or 7004 will be accepted as a valid written request for extension, provided that the licensee’s occupational license fee account number is plainly noted thereon. The extension request submitted by the licensee or his agent shall set out the licensee’s name and account number, the period for which the extension of time for filing is desired, and the reason requested (Also see IMPORTANT NOTE above). An extension of time for filing the Net Profit License Fee Return does not extend the time for payment of the license fee.

No penalty shall be assessed in those cases in which all filing and payment requirements have in good faith been fulfilled and the final license fee and interest is paid with the filing of the Net Profit License Fee Return within the period as extended. Any extension shall be granted with the understanding that all prior filing and payment requirements have been fulfilled (See IMPORTANT NOTE above). However, if upon further examination it becomes evident that prior filing and payment requirements have not been fulfilled; interest and penalty shall be assessed in full and in the same manner as though no extension had been granted.
