Everything You Need to Know About Getting a Tax Extension in New York State
New York State Tax Extension Guide
If you're a New York State resident seeking extra time to file your taxes, there's good news. Getting a tax extension is a simple process that can help you avoid penalties. Here's how you can get more time to complete your tax return:
- Individuals: File Form IT-201, IT-203, or IT-203-GR by April 15, 2024, for a 6-month extension, with a due date of Oct. 15, 2024.
- Partnerships: Complete Form IT-204 by March 15, 2024, for a 6-month extension, with a due date of Sept. 16, 2024.
- Fiduciaries: Submit Form IT-205 by April 15, 2024, for a 5 1/2-month extension, with a due date of Sept. 30, 2024.
Remember not only to file for a state extension but also for a federal extension using Form 4868 for an additional six months. However, keep in mind that an extension only applies to filing your return, not to paying your taxes.
