If you’re scrambling to file your taxes before the deadline, you’re not alone. Each year, millions of Americans request a tax extension, which gives you an extra six months to file your return to the IRS. A valid tax extension moves your filing due date from April 15 to October 15. More than 20 million taxpayers filed for an extension in 2024, according to IRS estimates. In fact, it might even make sense to file an extension if you expect to file your return on time.

Many provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, a massive overhaul of the tax code in 2017, are set to expire at the end of 2025. Among the TCJA tax-law changes that could expire are a near-doubling of the standard deduction, a broad expansion of the child tax credit, and a $10,000 cap on the state and local taxes, or SALT, deduction. If the TCJA expires, millions of Americans could face higher taxes.
