Description of Program and Relief
Tax Filing Extension for Individuals, Partnerships, and LLCs Taxed as Partnerships
As a part of special COVID-19 relief measures, the State of California is allowing for taxpayers (including individual filers, partnerships, LLCs taxed as partnerships and quarterly estimated tax payments) to file their 2019 California tax returns and make certain payments until June 15, 2020. The Franchise Tax Board will also waive any late filing or late payment penalties and interest that would otherwise apply.
Government or Lead Agency
State of California, Franchise Tax Board (FTB)
Dates Available
Extension available until June 15, 2020. This extension may be pushed back further if the IRS grants a longer relief period.
Eligibility Requirements/Restrictions
Individual filers, partnerships, LLCs taxed as partnerships, and filers submitting quarterly estimated tax payments are eligible for this extension. Taxpayers claiming the special COVID-19 relief should write the name of the state of emergency (for example, COVID-19) in black ink at the top of the tax return to alert FTB of the special extension period. If taxpayers are e-filing, they should follow the software instructions to enter disaster information.
