Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Yes, you can file a Federal extension Form 4868 electronically with TurboTax. The option to prepare and file an extension appears in Other Tax Forms under Other Tax Situations in both TurboTax Online and TurboTax Desktop.
If you file for an extension, include payment of any estimated taxes due. The extension is only to allow you to file up to 6 months after the deadline and not be assessed a late filing penalty. It doesn't extend the time to pay your tax. By filing your return on time, including extensions, you can avoid the penalty for late filing. Filing timely does not stop interest from accruing on any unpaid balance.
Ohio does not have an extension request form but honors the IRS extension. Even if you have a filing extension, all tax payments are due by April 15, 2025.
See this TurboTax help article and this tax tips article for more information about extensions.
