How do I file for an extension I can't get my w2 and I misplaced my last pay check?

Where do I go to get an extension without w2 or pay stub on hand?

Make an estimate.  You can file your extension at our Easy Extension website.

 

An extension gives you until October 15, 2025 to file your taxes instead of the tax deadline of April 15, 2025. You must file an extension by April 15, 2025 to get extra time to file your taxes without a penalty. There's no further extension past October 15, 2025.

An extension does not give you extra time to pay your taxes, which are due on April 15, 2025. Even if you can't pay your taxes by the deadline, file an extension anyway so you can avoid the late-filing penalty.
