June 15 deadline extensions for victims of Texas storm

Victims of this month's winter storms in Texas will have until June 15, 2021, to file various individual and business tax returns and make tax payments, the Internal Revenue Service announced today.

Following the recent disaster declaration issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the IRS is providing this relief to the entire state of Texas. But taxpayers in other states impacted by these winter storms that receive similar FEMA disaster declarations will automatically receive the same filing and payment relief. The current list of eligible localities is always available on the disaster relief page on IRS.gov.

The June 15 deadline extension applies to all 2020 tax return and payment due dates, as well as payments for estimated quarterly taxes normally due on April 15, quarterly payroll and excise tax returns normally due on April 30, and 2020 returns for tax-exempt organizations operating on a calendar-year basis normally due on May 17.
