S 1438 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Disaster Related Extension of Deadlines Act

This bill extends tax filing and payment deadlines for individuals and businesses affected by federally declared disasters, such as hurricanes or wildfires. It modifies the tax code to automatically treat disaster-related delays as extensions for both filing tax returns and making payments, preventing penalties during declared emergencies. Key provisions include amending IRS rules to apply these extensions to tax credit claims and collection notices issued after the bill's enactment. The law directly benefits taxpayers in disaster-impacted areas by providing relief during recovery periods.
