Final IRS Deadline for Tax-Exempt Groups is TODAY!!
There may still be a chance for your tax-exempt group to e-file an IRS Form 8868 extension; however, your organization must follow a fiscal tax year with specific end dates. If your tax period ends on June 30, you’re eligible to e-file Form 8868 Part I and get an automatic 3-month extension.
If your organization’s tax year ends on March 31, and you filed an extension for the August deadline, you can e-file Form 8868 Part II for an additional, not-automatic 3-month extension. You’ll need to include a reasonable explanation why you’re requesting extra time.
Important: You can now e-file a tax extension from anywhere with your favorite iOS or Android device – download our FREE ExpressTaxExempt – Form 8868 mobile app. Tax extensions are not available for IRS Form 990-N (e-Postcard).

IRS Penalties
You must transmit your tax return by 11:59 pm local time to avoid any late penalty fees. If you have no choice but to file late, the IRS charges $20 each day your return is not sent – $100 each day if your organization’s gross receipts are greater than $1 million. Maximum penalties can go up to $50,000 or 5% of total revenues, whichever is the smallest amount.
