CALIFORNIA FIRE DISASTER FILING RELIEF
October 30, 2007
The IRS has provided blanket relief (IR 2007-178) for taxpayers in the counties affected by the California wildfires for filings due October 21, 2007 through January 1, 2008, and for payroll and excise tax deposits due from October 21 through November 5. From the IRS release:
IRS computer systems automatically identify taxpayers located in the covered disaster area and apply automatic filing and payment relief. Taxpayers within the covered disaster area do not need to identify themselves as affected by the wildfires by writing on their returns or using the disaster designation in their tax software.Affected taxpayers who reside or have a business located outside the covered disaster area are required to call the IRS disaster hotline at 1-866-562-5227 to identify themselves as eligible for disaster relief.

The IRS has yet to provide relief for taxpayers affected by the LAX post office disaster of October 15.
