The federal government has extended, until July 15, 2020, the tax filing and payments deadline for all taxpayers who had an April 15, 2020 deadline. Many states have come forward and announced extension plans of their own, with some states mirroring the extension provided by the federal government and other states implementing their own extension of time to file and pay. Each state, and locality, has adopted its own provisions and as this is a developing story, we are expecting more states and localities to release guidance. Below are several states that impact HBK clients and the information that those states have released so far.
