Due to the coronavirus pandemic, on March 20, 2020, the Treasury Department announced the federal income tax filing and payment deadlines would be extended to July 15, 2020.
This 90-day tax filing and payment extension is applicable to all taxpayers and businesses. Interest and penalties will be automatically waived during this extension. They won’t accrue until after July 15. If you’re filing a Form 1040, you are able to defer $1 million or less in income tax liabilities. If you’re filing a Form 1120, the amount is $10 million or less.
This 90-day deferral covers income tax payments and any associated interest and penalties. It also includes estimated tax payments for the 2020 tax year that are due on April 15.
Please note that if you’re receiving a refund, the Treasury Departed stated that you should still receive it within the normal time period. (If you e-file, this is mostly likely within 21 days of filing.)
