Very easy to navigate and complete in a relatively short period of time. I was notified via email that the extension request was accepted by the IRS within seconds of submitting the form. Really, Seconds not Minutes.

Convenient and easy to use. Also love the email and text features, Thorough process, Sound explanations for each stage (help texts), payment options and Dashboard.

Easy navigation and the information from last year is saved into the system so that I don’t have to type it all in again. Live chat meant live chat, and fast.
Thank you for that.

This is a life-saver! For the first time in 44 years I need to request an extension on my business taxes and I had no idea how I was going to get the Form 7004 from Louisiana on March 13 to Utah by March 15. Thank you for this service.

This is absolutely the easiest way to manage tax filings for a small business. We have used Express Extension for 1099s and extensions, and it takes all the pressure out of the process.

Storing my info from the past so the process is quick and easy and I did not have to look up anything in my records to complete. The email reminder saved me from missing an important filing deadline! Thanks!

The IRS Form 4868 is used by U.S. Individuals to get a 6 months extension to file 1040 individual income tax returns. Form 4868 is an automatic extension Form, which means that you do not need to include a signature or explanation for requesting an extension of time.
Tax Extension for personal income tax can be applied using Form 4868.
Personal Tax Extension Form 4868 is for individual or joint taxpayers to apply for an additional 6 months to file IRS Form 1040, 1040A, 1040-EZ, 1040NR, 1040NR-EZ, 1040-PR or 1040-SS.
The IRS doesn't require a reason to extend, and it's automatic! But you are required to accurately estimate your 2021 tax liability and file IRS Form 4868 by the due date of your return.
Note: You still need to pay any tax due by the original IRS deadline; the Form 4868 extension does not extend the time to pay.
