Jerry and Mary are U.S. citizens, but they live and work in Germany, where Mary is stationed at an American Air Force base. They come to your site in March 2009, while on one-month's leave in the U.S. They want to know what they need to do in order to get an extension for filing their joint 2008 taxes. Explain to Jerry and Mary that ____.
|
Because they are in the U.S. with ample time to file, they cannot get an extension |
|
They can request a 2-month extension now and a 4-month extension after that |
|
They already have a 2-month extension because they live and work outside the U.S. |
|
They only qualify for a 4-month extension, and you can use IRS e-file to get it for them |
