1. General. The assessor may grant a reasonable extension of time for filing a return required by this chapter on terms and conditions as the assessor may require as long as payment reasonably estimating the tax due has been made on or before the original payment due date. Except as provided in subsection 2, an extension for filing any return may not exceed 8 months. [PL 2011, c. 380, Pt. M, §9 (NEW).] 2. Federal extension.
