Late tax return filing

[esulalb]

Hello

I am filing my taxes for 2020. I thought that  the extension was till Jul 15 (similar to 2019), my bad.

Is there any forgiveness for first time filing tax return late?

Is there any forms I need to add in my turbo-tax filing before I submit and pay my due taxes.

BTW, I have balance to pay so I am trying to see if there any forgiveness for first time filing.

Thanks

you could ask for forgiveness of the late filing penalty but if it is a small penalty you used up your one time abatement.

The late payment interest must be paid, by law.

IRS is so far behind processing, you would wait months for a response.

hello

How can I ask for forgiveness? 

Will the forgiveness all the penalty and the 5% interest?  

my total penalty will be high (>1000$).

Once you receive a notice charging you a penalty and interest,

Is the information on your notice correct? If there is an issue you can resolve with your notice, a penalty might not be applicable. Call the toll-free number on your notice either to resolve the issue with your notice or to determine if you are eligible for First Time Penalty Abatement or other administrative waiver.
