Tax deadline for Texas residents: June 15, 2021

I’ve had several (panicked) calls/emails asking about the upcoming May 17th deadline. Please note: May 17, 2021 is the filing date for individuals who do not reside in Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana. The IRS moved the date from the usual April 15th due to COVID-19. Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana individuals and businesses were extended to June 15, 2021 due to the severe weather disaster in February. The disaster declaration overrides the COVID extension.
