FEDS FURTHER EXTEND FLOOD AREA FILING DEADLINE; WILL IOWA FOLLOW SUIT?
July 14, 2008
The IRS this afternoon announced an additional extension of filing deadlines for taxpayers in the Iowa counties that are presidentially-declared disaster areas. Taxpayers in the 62 covered counties now have until August 29 to file returns and make income tax payments that would otherwise be due between May 25, 2009 and August 29. The former deadline was July 28 for May 25 - July 28 due dates.
Let's hope that the Iowa Department of Revenue finally gets it right and quickly adopts the federal deadline extension. So far they have have only extended disaster deadlines in dribs and drabs, and in the case of individual second-quarter estimated tax payments, not until the afternoon of the due date.
The list of covered counties is here.
