The IRS has announced tax relief for individuals and businesses affected by recent hurricanes, including Hurricane Debby, Hurricane Helene, Hurricane Milton in Florida, and storms in Juneau, Alaska. While this relief offers a reprieve, navigating the complexities of tax law in the wake of a disaster can be challenging.
Frost Law’s tax controversy attorneys can provide clarity and ensure you meet your obligations while maximizing available benefits.
Understanding the Extended Tax Deadlines
The IRS has extended various tax deadlines for those affected by the hurricanes. Most deadlines falling on or after October 5, 2024, and before May 1, 2025, are now due on May 1, 2025. This includes 2024 individual and business returns, 2023 returns with valid extensions, and quarterly estimated tax payments.
