   Your link to the page for state extensions is a nice effort, but the link for New York state extensions is broken.  Please fix it.

Revisit your NY state interview in TurboTax.  

 

  1. Scroll down to "Other forms and voluntary contributions" section.  
  2. Update the "Other Forms" topic.  
  3. Start the "Request for Extension of Time to File" topic

You can file for an extension for free directly on the IRS web site.  You will need to have your best guess on taxes owed.
