What is the extension for turbotax files

You can file an extension for your taxes by submitting Form 4868 with the IRS online or by mail. This must be done before the last day for filing taxes. Filing an extension for your taxes gives you additional months to prepare your return no matter the reason you need the extra time.

What is a tax extension?

When some taxpayers ask, “How do I get an extension for my taxes?” they might be thinking of the taxes owed and not the return itself.

This question calls attention to a key distinction about what a tax extension is — and what it is not. An extension only gives you more time to finish the paperwork, not more time to pay.

Your tax payment is due on the tax deadline, which typically falls on April 15 or on the next business day if it falls on a weekend or holiday.

• If you know you’ll be getting a refund, you won’t need to worry about paying when you are filing an extension for taxes. The earlier you file your return, the earlier you’ll receive your refund.
• If you think or know you’ll owe, you should estimate your tax liability and pay the amount due when you file Form 4868.

Is there a penalty for filing for a tax extension?

Filing a tax extension is not a bad thing. There is no penalty for filing an extension. However, not paying on time or enough, or failing to file altogether, may cost you.

• If you don’t pay the full amount you owe, the IRS will charge you interest on the unpaid balance until you pay the full amount.
• If you don’t pay at least 90% of the amount you owe, you might also be subject to a late payment penalty. The penalty is usually half of 1% of the amount owed for each month, up to a maximum of 25%.
• If you don’t file either your return or Form 4868 by the tax filing deadline, you’ll be subject to a late filing penalty. The penalty is usually 5% of the amount you owe for each month, up to a maximum of 25%.

After you file the extension, you’ll have until October 15 to gather your documents and finish your filing.  When you complete your return, you should include the amount you’ve already paid in the payments section of your Form 1040.

You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .tax. Files with the file extension .tax can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .tax files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.

The TAX file type is used by TurboTax, a tax-filing software created by Intuit Inc. The software is solely used for the creation of US-based tax returns and cannot be used internationally. There are Windows and Mac versions available. It can be used for both federal and state income tax returns. The resulting forms are subsequently validated and prepared for submission either online or via post. Previously this software was developed by Chipsoft until they later sold it to Intuit. The software uses a simple step-by-step methodology that means even people not familiar with tax returns can easily complete their individual or small business tax returns using the software. It is also fully supported and the developers are happy to answer general tax related questions in addition to those pertaining to the usage of their software The file extension is often prep ended with a year - for example “.tax08” or the more common “.tax2008” for tax returns in the year 2008.

Launch a .tax file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .tax file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .tax files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .tax file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a  .tax file will open the correct application.

Be careful not to rename the extension on .tax files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.

A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .tax. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.

Note: You can click on any file extension link from the list below, to view its detailed information. The list of extensions used or otherwise associated with the application may not be complete, because many common file extensions on our website, such as jpg (pictures) or txt (text files), can be opened by a large number of applications, or are too general file format. However most, if not all directly associated file extensions should be listed with its appropriate program. Although its likely, that some file extensions may be missing from the list of associated file extensions with the application, yet they can be opened, be part of, or otherwise be associated with the program.
