If you owe money, estimate the amount and try to pay it with your request for extension.
Due date is today. Postmark by today is okay.
More importantly, if you owe taxes you certainly should file for an extension.
This will extend the time you have to file your taxes until October 17th, 2022.

Remember, an extension gives you more time to prepare your taxes, but it doesn't extend the time to pay your taxes. If you have an indication that you will owe taxes you should make the payment to avoid additional interest and penalties.
