No, a late tax return filing does not mean you ae susceptible to a tax audit.  If you filed for a tax refund there are no penalties for filing after the due date.

No it is not an automatic audit.   If you are getting a tax refund there is no penalty for missing the deadline.   In fact, you can still file the return up to three years after the filing deadline and still receive your refund.   If you owe tax due, your interest and penalties began to add up after the filing deadline, though.

 

Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2021 returns will be available until October 15.   After that, you will need to use the downloaded software on a full PC or Mac and the return will have to be filed by mail.

What makes you think you are being audited?   Did you receive a letter or a notice of some sort from the IRS?
