You've successfully filed a Tax Extension!

Here's a quick rundown of what comes next:

1. Breathe Easy (for now): Filing the extension gives you an automatic six-month extension to file your federal income tax return. This pushes the deadline to October 15, 2025.

2. Don't Confuse Extension with Payment: It's crucial to remember that an extension to file is not an extension to pay. If you owed taxes, that payment was still due on the original tax deadline (April 15, 2025). Penalties and interest may apply to any unpaid balance from the original due date.

3. Estimate and Pay (if you haven't already): If you haven't paid your estimated tax liability, do so as soon as possible to minimize potential penalties and interest. You can pay online through the IRS website, by mail, or via the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS).

4. Gather Your Documents: Use this extra time wisely to gather all necessary tax documents (W-2s, 1099s, receipts, etc.). Organizing these now will make the actual filing process smoother.

5. Prepare and File Your Return: Don't wait until the last minute in October! Start preparing your tax return as soon as you have all your documents. You can use tax software, work with a tax professional, or use IRS Free File if you qualify.

6. Keep Records: Once you file, keep a copy of your tax return and all supporting documents for your records.

In short, the extension buys you time to file, but payment was still due. Use this extra time to get organized and file accurately before the extended deadline.
