FLORIDA – The Internal Revenue Service extended the tax deadline to May 1 for all of Florida and Georgia due to the hurricanes that affected the states.
The announcement was made on Oct. 11, 2024. The extended deadline now applies to:
- Any individual or business that has a 2024 return normally due during March or April 2025.
- Any individual, C corporation or tax-exempt organization that has a valid extension to file their calendar-year 2023 federal return. The IRS noted, however, that payments on these returns are not eligible for the extra time because they were due last spring before the hurricane occurred.
- 2024 quarterly estimated tax payments normally due on Jan. 15, 2025, and 2025 estimated tax payments normally due on April 15, 2025.
- Quarterly payroll and excise tax returns normally due on Oct. 31, 2024, Jan. 31, 2025, and April 30, 2025.
