Los Angeles California.- The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) informs that some taxpayers in California, Alabama and Georgia will have a new extension to file their taxes until October 16, 2030.
“The IRS is offering relief to any Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) designated area in these three states,” the federal agency statement read.
Who is eligible for the tax filing extension benefit?
The declaration of disaster zones on January 23 by the federal agency FEMA extends individual and public aid to the affected areas.
Regarding the six-month extension for tax filing, residents within disaster areas will be eligible according to the FEMA list.
The list includes individuals and households affected by severe winter storms, flooding, mudslides, and mudslides who reside or have a business in the following areas:
Alameda
Amador
Calaveras
Against Coast
Mendocino
Merced
Monterey
Sacramento
San Joaquin
San Luis Bishop
Saint Matthew
Saint Barbara
Santa Cruz
Ventura
What is the additional extension of time for filing taxes in California?
The aid postpones several deadlines for filing and paying 2022 individual and business taxes until October 16.
This includes: individual tax returns due April 18; various business tax returns normally due March 15 and April 18, and tax-exempt organization tax returns normally due May 15.
What should I do with the IRS if I was affected by winter storms in California?
The IRS automatically identifies taxpayers located in the covered disaster area and applies filing and payment relief.
However, those affected taxpayers who reside or have a business located outside of the covered disaster area should call the IRS disaster hotline at 866-562-5227 to request this tax relief.
