INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Department of Revenue (DOR) is extending individual income tax filing and payment deadlines to align with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) deadline of May 17.
Individual tax returns and payments, originally due by April 15, 2021, are now due on or before May 17, 2021.
All other tax return filings and payment due dates remain unchanged.
Individuals who are not able to file by the May 17 deadline can file an extension directly with DOR or with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). If the IRS extension is granted, the Indiana extension is automatically granted. A timely filed extension moves the federal tax filing deadline to Oct. 15, and the Indiana filing deadline to Nov. 15.
It is important to note that the extension only shifts the filing deadline and not the payment deadline. Ninety percent of the taxes owed are still required to be paid by May 17 to avoid penalties and interest.
