How do I file an extension for California state taxes ?

California automatically grants a 6-month extension to October 15, so there is nothing you need to file. 

If you owe them taxes, submit payment by April 15 to avoid penalties. Here are 3 payment options:

1. Print and mail Form FTB 3519 along with your check payment
2. Pay online at their Web Pay site
3. Put it on your credit card
