EXTENSIONS & DEADLINE
The deadline for submitting timely 2025 individual income tax returns and extensions is Wednesday, April 15, 2026.
Returns and extensions will be considered timely filed if they are postmarked by April 15 or electronically filed by 11:59 PM on April 15.
To ensure that all transmissions are considered timely filed, please have all returns and extensions transmitted no later than 11:59 PM your local time on Wednesday, April 15. We advise finalizing and transmitting all returns and extensions well before the midnight deadline.
If you are filing an extension (Form 4868), the automatic extension extends the deadline for filing the return until October 15, 2026. It does not extend the payment deadline. To include an electronic payment with the extension, fill out the Form 4868 Electronic Payment information in the Form 4868 Extension Menu.
A 5-day perfection period applies to any electronically filed individual tax return or extension that was filed and rejected by the filing deadline. The IRS considers returns and extensions that are re-transmitted electronically and accepted within 5 calendar days of the date a return was rejected as timely filed. All corrected individual returns and extensions must be transmitted no later than 11:59 PM your local time on Monday, April 20, 2026.
