The IRS has extended the tax filing deadlines for residents in certain states due to recent natural disasters. While most taxpayers face the traditional April 15 deadline, those in Arkansas and Tennessee now have until November 3, 2025, to file due to storms and flooding. Additionally, residents in several states, including Alabama and Florida, can file until May 1, while individuals affected by California wildfires in Los Angeles County have until October 15. The IRS typically grants these extensions to help alleviate the stress of tax filing following disasters. Taxpayers outside the designated areas can still request a separate extension until October 15 but must pay any owed taxes by April 15.
