Following the recent disaster declaration issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the IRS announced that affected taxpayers in certain areas will receive tax relief.
Tennessee – Individuals and households affected by severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, and flooding that reside or have a business in Campbell, Cannon, Cheatham, Claiborne, Clay, Davidson, Decatur, Fentress, Grainger, Hardeman, Henderson, Hickman, Jackson, Madison, Maury, McNairy, Moore, Overton, Scott, Smith, Wayne, Williamson, and Wilson counties qualify for tax relief. The declaration permits the IRS to postpone certain tax-filing and tax-payment deadlines for taxpayers who reside or have a business in the disaster area. For instance, certain deadlines falling on or after March 25, 2021, and before August 2, 2021 are postponed through August 2, 2021.
The Internal Revenue Service already announced that the federal income tax filing due date for individuals for the 2020 tax year will be automatically extended from April 15, 2021, to May 17, 2021. When your Income Tax Extension Form 4868 is approved you’ll have until October 15, 2021 to file your return but you still need to pay any taxes owed by May 17.
Anyone can request an automatic tax-filing extension, but some people get extra time without asking, according to the Internal Revenue Service. Due to the ongoing pandemic, this year the IRS postponed the usual April 15 deadline for filing individual income tax returns until May 17, 2021. Even so, as is the case every year, many Americans will still need more time to meet their tax-filing obligation.
There is a pressing need to act quickly because there isn’t much time left to file the C-corporation Form 1120 income tax return or an Extension Form 7004 for C-corporation 1120 to seek a filing extension.

The deadline to apply for a Form 7004 extension, which is an automatic extension of time for Form 1120, is also TODAY, April 15.
The RS is once again moving the income tax filing deadline to allow more time to complete and submit your tax return and to pay any taxes you may owe. This year, individual taxpayers, including sole proprietors and single-owner LLCs, who normally have to file their tax return by April 15 will have until May 17, 2021 to file their 2020 taxes.

Most businesses and self-employed individuals must submit estimated tax payments quarterly and file an income tax return annually. Filing dates depend on whether you operate a corporation, partnership, S corporation, or sole proprietorship.

Corporations can have various tax filing deadlines, and it should be defined in your corporate resolution. S corporations and partnerships, have a tax filing deadline of March 15.

Companies have until April 15, 2021 to submit corporate tax returns for income received in 2020. Businesses may use Form 1120 or request a six-month extension by filing Form 7004 and submitting a deposit for the amount of estimated tax owed. The first quarterly estimated tax payment of the year is also due on this date. If your business requests an extension, you have until October 15 to submit your income tax return using Form 1120. You’ll be required to pay penalties, interest, and any remaining tax at that time.
