Frequently asked questions for New Hampshire

How does New Hampshire apportion income for businesses with operations in multiple states?
New Hampshire apportions multi-state business income using a formula that weights sales, payroll, and property factors. New Hampshire has no state income tax. The relative weight assigned to each factor under New Hampshire law determines how much of total business income is taxable in NH — we compute the apportionment fraction on every multi-state entity return we file.
Does New Hampshire follow federal bonus depreciation and Section 179 rules?
New Hampshire does not always adopt federal depreciation changes in the year Congress enacts them. New Hampshire has no state income tax. Conformity gaps require addback or subtraction adjustments on the NH return, which can significantly shift New Hampshire taxable income relative to the federal figure. We apply current NH depreciation rules on every business return.
