EXTENSION F A O'S
o Filing an extension WILL NOT generate an audit.
.
lf you are due a refund, there is no need to file an extension.
o Extensions only buy you time for the paperwork; you still need to
send in money with the extension foims.
.
Send as much as you can,reasonqbly afford with the extension if
you have no idea what your Iiability wil! be. If you overpay, you'll get
it back. lf you underpay, the less of a balance due you have, the
less the penalties will be.
o Late payment penalties are calculated on a monthly basis. Make
your appointment to file your taxes as soon as you can after the
filing deadline. Don't wait until the last minute. Again.
o Make a copy of both the federal and state extensions to keep for
your
records.
