When is Form 7004 due?

Form 7004 must be filed by the original due date of the tax return you’re extending. Filing after that date may lead to IRS penalties and interest.

For calendar-year businesses, the Form 7004 deadline is:

March 15

Deadline

Partnerships & S-Corps

April 15

Deadline

C-Corporations

Filing on a fiscal year? Your deadline may be different. X.TAX automatically calculates the correct Form 7004 due date based on your tax year and entity type.

Remember: Form 7004 gives you more time to file your return, but it does not extend the time to pay any tax owed. Any estimated tax balance must still be paid by the original return due date to avoid penalties and interest.
