About Form 4868

Form 4868 allows taxpayers to receive an automatic 6-month extension to file their individual income tax returns, including Forms 1040, 1040-A, 1040-NR, 1040NR-EZ, 1040-PR, 1040-SS, and certain 1099 filings.

To qualify for the extension, you must generally pay at least 90% of the taxes owed by the original due date, typically April 15. Fiscal-year taxpayers should file Form 4868 by the regular due date of their tax return. Filing this form on time ensures you avoid late-filing penalties while giving you extra time to prepare and submit your return.
