California experienced extreme weather recently. As a result, the Internal Revenue Service and its Californian equivalent, the Franchise Tax Board (FTB), extended the tax filing deadline for most (but not all) Californians. Whether an individual has been given more time to file is determined by the county that the individual resides in. This deadline extends the time to pay one’s taxes and file tax returns, which would normally be April 18. [“The due date is April 18, instead of April 15, because of the weekend and the District of Columbia’s Emancipation Day holiday, which falls on Monday, April 17.”] Both the FTB and the IRS extended the deadline to May 15. The IRS later extended the date to October 16, and the FTB announced on March 2 that its deadline will also be October 16. Please see the chart below for how each county is categorized.
