As millions of taxpayers race to file their taxes by Tax Day on Tuesday, April 18, people recovering from massive snowstorms, devastating mudslides, tornadoes and other natural disasters have extra time to get their tax returns in order.
But the rules are not for everyone. That’s because the IRS routinely gives extra time to file and pay for taxpayers in places that are bouncing back from natural disasters.• Taxpayers and businesses in certain New York counties after a massive snowstorm in late December. New deadlines include a May 15 date to file tax returns and pay owed taxes.
• Taxpayers and businesses in many California counties have an Oct. 16 deadline in the wake of mudslides, flooding and storms. Los Angeles County, the country’s most populous county, is included on the IRS list of counties where affected taxpayers have more time. The new dates give taxpayers more time to file and pay owed taxes without incurring penalties and interest, said IRS spokesman Eric Smith. The relief also includes extra time for taxpayers in these locations to make contributions to IRAs and health savings accounts, Smith noted.The pushed-back deadlines, May 15, July 31 and Oct. 31, respectively, are also the deadlines for contributions to IRAs and HSAs.
