WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service today reminds individuals and businesses in areas covered by 2024 disaster declarations that their 2024 federal income tax returns and tax payments for tax year 2024 are due on Thursday, May 1, 2025. Taxpayers in three additional states face fall deadlines.
The May 1, 2025, deadline applies to taxpayers affected by FEMA disaster declarations issued during 2024. Taxpayers in the entire states of:
Alabama
Florida
Georgia
North Carolina
South Carolina
Individual and business taxpayers automatically get the extra time without having to ask for it. Anyone who needs a tax filing extension beyond May 1, 2025, for tax year 2024 can get it, but they must request the extra time.
