ALABAMA — The Internal Revenue Service has extended the deadline to file and pay individual and business tax returns until Jan. 15, 2021, for Alabama residents and businesses affected by Hurricane Sally.
The relief applies to taxpayers in Baldwin, Escambia and Mobile counties, according to the IRS. Localities added to the federal disaster area later will automatically receive the same filing and payment relief.
Affected taxpayers who receive a late-filing or late-payment penalty notice from the IRS with an original or extended due date that falls within the postponement period should call the number on the notice to have the penalty abated, the agency said.
