Late yesterday, the IRS announced that it will not further postpone federal tax filing and payment deadlines beyond July 15. You’ll remember that most tax deadlines between April 1 and July 15 were moved to July 15 in response to the coronavirus pandemic.

Need more time to file? Individuals can apply for an automatic extension of time to file until October 15, but they must pay taxes due by July 15 to avoid penalties.
