The April 15 tax filing deadline is days away.
What happens if you can’t file in time? You need to file an extension.
You do not pay you will be subject to interest and penalties.
You must file the extension no later than April 15 the regular tax deadline.
An extension to file your return is not an extension to pay any taxes you owe.
You must estimate and pay the tax you owe and file by April deadline
