i lost my most recent license and don't have a picture of it. i have a picture of my expired license with the document number on it.

Is there an option to bypass this if you do not have access to your driver's license? It might delay your refund though. This link has some details on the requirement.

can i use the information on my expired license?

[KellyH]

It says "NY accepts information from your most recent driver license or non-driver ID. The ID can be active or expired. If your ID is expiring, NY will not reject the return." But if you have a more recent ID, I'm not sure if an expired ID will work.

okay, thanks. is it possible that they give extensions to file your taxes? or is today the absolute last day?

[KellyH]

Yes, you can file an extension by tonight! Details on how to do that are here. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3301811">https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3301811</a>
