Get your taxes done using TurboTax

California gives an automatic 6-month extension - You must file by the state return by the CA deadline to avoid a late filing penalty.  The deadline is October 17, 2022.  

 

An extension to file your tax return is not an extension to pay.  Pay the amount you owe by April 18, 2022, to avoid penalties and interest.

 

Make a California payment

Use Payment for Automatic Extension for Individuals (FTB 3519) to make a payment by mail if both of the following apply:

 

  • You cannot file your 2021 tax return by April 18, 2022
  • You owe tax for 2021

To pay electronically, visit our payment options.
