New York –– The Internal Revenue Service today reminded New York State taxpayers affected by Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee that they have until Oct. 31 to meet certain tax filing and payment obligations and announced that e-File and Free File would remain available to accept their returns.

E-file, which will close for all other taxpayers following the Oct. 17 extension filing deadline, will be open through the end of October to any taxpayer who lives or has a business in areas granted tax relief because of Hurricane Irene or Tropical Storm Lee.

The New York State areas granted tax relief are the counties of Albany, Bronx, Broome, Clinton, Chemung, Columbia, Chenango, Delaware, Dutchess, Essex, Fulton, Greene, Herkimer, Kings, Montgomery, Nassau, Oneida, Orange, Otsego, Putnam, Queens, Rensselaer, Richmond, Rockland, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Suffolk, Sullivan, Tioga, Ulster, Warren, Washington and Westchester

Special Instructions for e-Filers

The IRS encouraged any taxpayer who wants to include a payment with the tax return to e-File by Oct. 20.

These guidelines apply to e-File and Free File returns only. Payments accompanying paper returns are not affected.
