You have to do it by mail and it has to be postmarked today (05/01).   If you live in a qualified disaster area and you file between 04/15/25 and 05/01/25, the IRS will not impose a penalty.   You can print and mail it; the form is linked at the bottom of this post.  

 

If you need an extension through 10/15/25, you must file the extension on paper.    See this IRS notice >> Further Tax Filing Extensions Available

 

Form 4868 and instructions included
