Form 7004 deadline is around the corner, March 15 is the Due Date

The Business Income Tax Filers can extension the deadline beyond March 15 by reporting Business Income Tax Extension Form 7004 by March 15th for certain business types. Even though you are filing an application for an extension, you must pay any taxes due by the regular tax return due date, depending on your business type. There is only one extension allowed per tax year. You can’t keep getting multiple extensions.

Maximum extension period.

The automatic extension period for time to file is generally 6 months. Exceptions apply for certain filers of Form 1041 and for C corporations with tax years ending June 30. An estate (other than a bankruptcy estate) and a trust filing Form 1041 are eligible for an automatic 5½-month extension of time to file. C corporations with tax years ending June 30 are eligible for an automatic 7-month extension of time to file (6-month extension if filing Form 1120-POL). See the instructions for Part II, lines 2 and 4, for exceptions for foreign corporations, certain domestic corporations, and certain partnerships with books and records outside of the United States and Puerto Rico. The due date varies based on the tax filing period and the type of business you operate.  Continue reading
