IRS Reminds Taxpayers to Request Filing Extension as Deadline Approaches

The IRS has reminded taxpayers that they must request a filing extension by April 15, 2026, to avoid late-filing penalties. The extension, if approved, would push the filing deadline to October 15, 2026, but payment of taxes is still due by April 15. Taxpayers can apply for the extension electronically through IRS Free File or by filing Form 4868.
