Get your taxes done using TurboTax
It depends - do you need to file an extension for your regular personal taxes? If you obtain an extension of time to file your individual income tax return by using Form 4868, the time to file your Form 709 is automatically extended, and that can be done online. The 8892 would need to be paper filed, if you are going to file it.
Otherwise, there really is no reason to file an extension. The IRS uses the "mailbox" rule which means that the filing is considered filed when mailed. If you have proof of the mailing, even if it is lost, you won't be penalized for it being received "late".
