S 8091 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the timeframe for distributors of cannabis products to file tax returns

This bill (S 8091) would have extended the deadline for cannabis distributors to file quarterly tax returns, changing the requirement from filing by the 20th day after each quarter to the 50th day. It directly affects businesses licensed to distribute cannabis products in New York, requiring them to submit tax returns for periods ending February, May, August, and November. The bill was passed by the legislature but vetoed by the governor on December 5, 2025, so it did not become law. The key change was solely the extended filing timeframe for tax compliance.
