Additional Tax Deadline Changes

The IRS has announced additional tax deadline extensions.

 

The extensions, detailed in Notice 2020-23, generally now apply to all taxpayers that have a filing or payment deadline falling on or after April 1, 2020, and before July 15, 2020. Individuals, trusts, estates, corporations and other non-corporate tax filers qualify for the extra time.

 

Relief also applies to estimated tax payments due June 15, 2020. This means that any individual or corporation that has a quarterly estimated tax payment due on or after April 1, 2020, and before July 15, 2020, can wait until July 15 to make that payment, without penalty.

 

The deadline to contribute to a traditional or Roth IRA has also been extended until July 15, 2020.

 

The extensions apply to many forms and tax payments made by tax-exempt organizations, including: 

  • Form 990-series annual information returns or notices (Forms 990, 990-EZ, 990-PF, 990-BL, 990-N (e-postcard))
  • Forms 8871 and 8872
