Victims of winter storms in Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana will have until June 15, 2021, to file various individual and business tax returns and make tax payments, the Internal Revenue Service announced. Links to the official extension and IRS disaster declarations for all three states are listed below:

Texas disaster declaration: TX-2021-02

Louisiana disaster declaration: LA-2021-02

Oklahoma disaster declaration: OK-2021-01

Affected individuals and businesses will have until June 15, 2021, to file returns and pay any taxes that were originally due during this period. This includes 2020 individual and business returns normally due on April 15, as well as various 2020 business returns due on March 15. Among other things, this also means that affected taxpayers will have until June 15 to make 2020 IRA contributions. The June 15 deadline also applies to quarterly estimated income tax payments due on April 15 and the quarterly payroll and excise tax returns normally due on April 30. It also applies to tax-exempt organizations, operating on a calendar-year basis, that have a 2020 return due on May 17. Following the disaster declaration issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the IRS is providing this relief to the entire state of Texas. But taxpayers in other states impacted by these winter storms that receive similar FEMA disaster declarations will automatically receive the same filing and payment relief. The current list of eligible localities is always available on the disaster relief page on IRS.gov.
