New Hampshire, NH State Income Taxes

New Hampshire does not tax individuals' earned income, so you are not required to file an individual New Hampshire tax return. The state only taxes interest and dividends at 5% on residents and fiduciaries whose gross interest and dividends income, from all sources, exceeds $2,400 annually ($4,800 for joint filers). If you have investment income from interest and dividends, described in detail in the "NH Income Tax" section, you may have to file a New Hampshire tax return for that income.

The eFile.com Tax App will prepare the proper interest and dividend tax forms for you. You will not be able to eFile these forms to New Hampshire. However, you can print, sign, and mail these forms, along with your payment, from your completed tax return PDF file.
