As you scramble to beat the May 17 tax return filing deadline, here are some pointers to bring your stress level down.

If you need more time to prepare your return...
You can file for an extension, which will give you until October 15 to file your tax return. Approval is automatic. Use Form 4868 to file your request. Most tax software programs provide this form.

If you're confident you're due a refund...
There's no reason to sweat the tax-filing deadline. The IRS will gladly hold on to your money until you get around to filing your return — if ever.

If you owe taxes...
Filing for an extension gives you more time to file your return, but it doesn't give you more time to pay taxes you owe. If you can't come up with the money by May 17, your bill will be inflated by underpayment fines and interest on the balance until you pay it off.

If you need more time to come up with the money owed...
You can ask the IRS for an additional 120 days to make your payment. There's no fee to set up this agreement, although you'll owe interest and other fees on the balance until it's paid off. Submit a payment agreement application online or call 800-829-1040.

If the amount you owe is large...
Consider requesting an installment plan with the IRS. With an installment plan, you can make monthly payments until the balance is paid off. Taxpayers who owe $50,000 or less can apply online. If you apply online, the setup fee is $149 — but only $31 if you arrange for direct debit from your bank account. If you apply by phone, mail or in person, the setup fee is $225 (or $107 if you have payments debited from your bank account).

If you filed your 2020 tax return and don't know where your income tax refund is yet, here's how to check on the status of your money and find out how much to expect from the IRS

You can also use the IRS' refund-status tools if you claimed missing stimulus money as a Recovery Rebate Credit on your 2020 taxes. And if you think your third stimulus check is missing or held up, the agency has an app for you to track the status of that. Here's some of what we know about filing an amended tax form, other credits and benefits related to COVID and a possible fourth stimulus payment. If you have children, you'll want to know how much money you could get with child tax credits. If you were getting unemployment benefits last year, you may qualify for a tax break and get a higher amount with your refund. Did you know you may also qualify for a discount on your internet bill?

How to track your income tax refund ?

To track the status of your tax refund, you need several things on hand: Your Social Security number or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, your filing status -- single, married or head of household -- and your refund amount in whole dollars, which you can find on your tax return. Also, make sure it's been at least 24 hours before you try tracking your refund.

Using the IRS tool Where's My Refund, enter your SSN or ITIN, your filing status and your exact refund amount, then press Submit. If you entered your information correctly, you'll be taken to a page that shows your refund status. If not, you may be asked to verify your personal tax data and try again. If all the information looks correct, you'll need to enter the date you filed your taxes, along with whether you filed electronically or on paper. The IRS also has a mobile app, called IRS2Go.

El Franchise Tax Board (FTB, por sus siglas en inglés) anunció el 19 de marzo de este año que, consistente con el Servicio de Impuestos Internos, ha pospuesto la fecha límite de presentación y pago de impuesto estatal para los contribuyentes individuales hasta el 17 de mayo de 2021.

“Reconocemos que ha sido un año desafiante para los californianos en todo el estado”, dijo la Contralora del Estado Betty T. Yee, quien se desempeña como presidenta del FTB. “Me complace que podamos posponer las fechas límites de presentación y pago de impuestos para todos los contribuyentes individuales en California hasta el 17 de mayo. Esperemos que esta pequeña medida de alivio continuará permitiendo que las personas se enfoquen en su salud y seguridad y naveguen por las complejidades causadas por la pandemia.”

Este aplazamiento se aplica a los declarantes individuales cuyas declaraciones de impuestos y pagos de 2020 vencían originalmente el 15 de abril de 2021. Los contribuyentes no necesitan reclamar ningún trato especial o llamar al FTB para calificar para este aplazamiento. El FTB exonerará cualquier interés y multas por pago atrasado que de otro modo se aplicarían si las declaraciones se presentan y los pagos se realizan antes del 17 de mayo.

El aplazamiento solo se aplica a los contribuyentes individuales y no se aplica a los pagos de impuesto estimado, que aún se vencen el 15 de abril.
