IRS Form 4868: Automatic Extension for Individual Tax Returns
A personal tax extension uses Form 4868, officially called an Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File U.S. Individual Income Tax Return. The deadline to file a Personal Tax Extension is April 15th. By E-Filing Form 4868, the IRS will grant you an extra six months to file making your new deadline October 15.
Please note: IRS Form 4868 does not extend the time for payment of tax. Generally, payment of any balance due according to IRS Form 4868 is required by the due date of the return for which this extension is filed.
