They do not. States cannot legislate when federal taxes are due. The OP was referring to the State of NH leaving the filing date at 4/15 for state returns and not extending to 5/17 like the federal and many states have.

Many here know I am a CPA and in my opinion there was no reason at all to extend the deadline. Last year was much different with quarantining and many office closed but this year all tax documents were mailed or accessible in the required time frame. It’s just been on big headache
