IRS automatic filing extension
Some States and U.S. territories may have qualified for a filing extension due to a natural disaster. If you suffer the consequences of a storm, hurricane, flood, or wildfire, check the Internal Revenue Service official website: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/tax-relief-in-disaster-situations.
There, you will find out if the area where you live qualifies you for a filing extension or for tax relief. Any help when your house or belongings have been lost will definitely come in handy.
Although it was necessary to pay the taxes to the Internal Revenue Service by April 15, 2024, some taxpayers have not made those payments yet. Therefore, they should do so before interest and penalties increase their debt.
