What an Extension Is and What It Does

Filing an extension gives you until October 15, 2024, to file your taxes, not to pay them. Extensions can be requested by submitting Form 4868,

Filing Your Extension

Form 4868 can be filed by mail or electronically through your TurboTax account. There is no fee to request an extension. Once you have filed your extension, you will have until October 15, 2024, to file your taxes. However, it is important to note that filing an extension does not extend the deadline for paying your taxes. You must still pay any taxes you owe by April 15, 2024.

If you expect to owe taxes, it is important to make estimated tax payments to avoid penalties and interest. You can make estimated tax payments using Form 1040-ES. Filing an extension does not extend the due date for estimated tax payments.
