Extension

I got 2024 State and Federal extensions until Oct 2025. I don’t have my paperwork, and I’m scared.  Is there a further extension?

Unfortunately, no, there is not further extensions available. 

If you file after the deadline, and have a balance due, the IRS and state will assess failure to file penalties. Also, extensions do not extend the deadline to pay, so failure to pay penalties will apply back to April 15, 2025 (for the 2024 tax return).


If you are due refunds, there is no penalty for filing after the deadline. Generally, returns claiming a refund must be filed within 3 years of the original filing date (for 2024 returns, originally due April 15, 2025, this would be by April 15, 2028).
