The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) extended tax filing and payment due dates for some parts of Tennessee after extreme weather events impacted the region.

The tax relief applies to individuals and businesses affected by storms and tornadoes that began on Dec. 9, according to an agency press release on Friday. The measure “postpones various tax filing and payment deadlines that occurred from Dec. 9, 2023, through June 17, 2024 (postponement period). As a result, affected individuals and businesses will have until June 17, 2024, to file returns and pay any taxes that were originally due during this period.”
