EXTENSION

PERSONAL TAX RETURN EXTENTIONS

The purpose for filing an extension is to grant additional time to file your tax return.  If you are unable to pay your balance due by the due date (April 15, 2024), you DO NOT need to file an extension.  Go ahead and file your tax return, send in any payment you can, and ask to be set up on payments.  An extension does NOT give you more time to pay your taxes if there is a balance due!  Filing an extension only grants an extension of time to file your tax return.  The extension deadline will be Wednesday, October 16, 2024.  IRS and State governments will charge late payment penalties and interest until any balance due is paid in full, regardless if an extension was filed or not.

​

To file the extension, you may choose to complete the forms below and we will be happy to file an extension for you for a fee of $25.  OR, use the IRS website (www.irs.gov) to file your own extension electronically or by mail.  If you know you want to file an extension, we can file it at any time – it is not necessary to wait until April 15th.

​
