Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@jmbrowns69

 

If you don't pay your owed taxes when you file the extension, the IRS will start charging you interest on the day after the due date of the return (July 16th). In addition, you leave yourself open to a "failure to pay" penalty.

 

You can still file the extension by putting zero for taxes owed...but you need to file that return as quickly as possible to reduce future interest.
