File for a Tax Extension, but Pay on Time

Requesting an Extension

Filing an extension of time to file your taxes does not extend the deadline to pay any taxes you owe. You must still estimate and pay your taxes by April 18, 2023. To request an extension, you can file Form 4868 online or by mail. This extension gives you until October 16, 2023, to file your return.

Paying Your Taxes

Even though you have an extension to file your tax return, the deadline to pay your taxes remains April 18, 2023. You can pay your taxes online, by mail, or through a tax professional. If you cannot afford to pay your taxes in full by the deadline, you may be able to set up a payment plan with the IRS.

Remember, filing for an extension is only an extension to file your tax return. It does not extend the deadline to pay your taxes. Estimating and paying your taxes on time will help you avoid penalties and fees.
