Storm victims can apply for state tax filing extensions

Advertiser Staff

The state Department of Taxation said taxpayers whose homes were damaged in the recent storms can apply for extensions to file and pay taxes.

Affected taxpayers also can apply for waivers of penalties and interest. All applications will be considered on a case-by-case basis, Tax Department officials said.

All returns should be clearly marked "December 2007 Storm Relief" at the top, according to the department.

For more information, call the Taxpayer Services Branch at 587,4242, or toll-free at 800 222-3229.
