E-FILE A FEDERAL EXTENSION
DAVE DESAI
Last Update 3 years ago
With the upcoming filing deadline of April 18th, we wanted to provide a quick guide to adding and then e-filing an Application for Extension in case any of your clients need one. Please note that regardless of filing an extension, all balance dues must be paid no later than April 18th to avoid penalties and interest.
If starting a new return, complete the return through Basic Information. Then, go directly to the Miscellaneous Forms section > Form 4868.
Complete the Application for Extension then “Continue” to save. Next. navigate to E-file and click “File Extension”.
Follow the prompts to successfully e-file the Application for Extension.
There will be a couple additional screens to complete. Client List will display the accepted or rejected status of the extension e-filed.
