Federal tax filing extension for 2020 returns

Normally, you must file your tax return by April 15 (aka “Tax Day”). But in 2020, the IRS pushed back the federal tax deadline to July 15 due to the coronavirus. And in 2021, the IRS is once again pushing back the federal tax return deadline.

The new federal tax filing deadline with extension is nowMay 17, 2021.

Thanks to the IRS extension, you have until May 17 to file your 2020 tax return—without incurring penalties and interest. The IRS payment extension applies to individual taxpayers and those who payself-employment taxes. However, this extensiondoes notapply to quarterlyestimated taxpayments due on April 15, 2021.

Due to severe winter storms, the IRS has extended the federal tax deadline to June 15, 2021 for individual and business tax payments in Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas.

You might be wondering,Why is the tax filing deadline extended? This extension aims to give taxpayers more time to file their tax returns, particularly if they owe money to the government.

If you will be receiving a refund, theIRS encouragesyou to file as soon as possible.

State tax extensions for 2020 returns

Generally, the state tax return deadline is April 15 each year. But with the coronavirus still impacting many individuals, states are beginning to push back state tax return deadlines.

一些州,如伊利诺斯州、路易斯安那州和马里兰州,已经将截止日期延长到夏季(如5月、6月、7月),让纳税人有更多的时间提交和支付州税。

Keep in mind that for many states, the state will automatically waive late-payment penalties for payments remitted by the new tax return due date. However, some states will not waive accrued interest. Consult your state about what penalties and/or interest they automatically waive.
