My filing deadline is May 1 due to living in a disaster area. How do I enter this in TurboTax to avoid a filing penalty?

If you have no taxes owed or have a tax refund there are no penalties for filing after the due date of the tax return.

There is nothing to do. IRS uses your Zip Code for disaster-related extensions.
