Thanks DawnC. Very helpful. Let me please just clarify your statement that "Only taxpayers affected by these storms qualify for an extension".
According the IRS annoucements all of us whose IRS mailing addresses are in the affected CA counties (e.g. in my case the San Mateo county) are automatically allowed this extension to file and pay... I suppose this also is true for the CA state "FTB extension to file and pay", correct?...
I just want to make sure that in the case of CA to get the extension to file and pay, someone like me does NOT need to somehow apply, prove, and get approved that is indeed "affected by these storms"...
Please clarify. Thanks again.
