IRS Tax Relief For Puerto Rico Victims Of Hurricane Fiona

September 24, 2022

[via IRS]

Victims of Hurricane Fiona beginning September 17, 2022, now have until February 15, 2023, to file various individual and business tax returns and make tax payments, the Internal Revenue Service announce few days ago.

Following the recent disaster declaration issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the IRS announced that affected taxpayers in certain areas will receive tax relief.

  • Individuals and households affected by Hurricane Fiona that reside or have a business in all 78 municipalities in Puerto Rico qualify for tax relief. The declaration permits the IRS to postpone certain tax-filing and tax-payment deadlines for taxpayers who reside or have a business in the disaster area. For instance, certain deadlines falling on or after September 17, 2022, and before February 15, 2023, are postponed through February 15, 2023.
  • This means individuals who had a valid extension to file their 2021 return due to run out on October 17, 2022, now have until February 15, 2023, to file. The IRS noted, however, that because tax payments related to these 2021 returns were due on April 18, 2022, those payments are not eligible for this relief.
