Most Californians have even more time to file last year’s state and federal taxes after the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the state’s Franchise Tax Board extended the deadline another month.
In an announcement Monday, the IRS further postponed deadlines to file 2022 returns and pay any taxes due to Nov. 16.
Residents and businesses in most California counties—excluding Lassen, Modoc, and Shasta counties—qualify for the deadline extension.
Severe rain and snow pummeled the state beginning early this year, causing 55 of 58 counties throughout the state to be declared disasters by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Those affected can claim a disaster loss for the 2023 tax year when filing next spring, or claim the loss against 2022 income on this year’s return.
An amended return may also be filed by those who have already filed this year, the state said.
