IRS Expands Tax Relief to All Tennesseans, Postpones Various Deadlines Due to Winter Storm
The IRS said the relief covers individual and business returns after a storm that left many residents without power for weeks.
- The IRS extended the federal tax filing and payment deadline to June 8, 2026, for taxpayers in Mississippi and Tennessee following severe winter storm damage earlier this year.
- Initially, the IRS granted relief to only certain counties with a May 22 deadline, but the agency announced it is expanding aid to include all residents across both states.
- All 95 counties in Tennessee are now covered by the expanded relief, ensuring that eligible taxpayers automatically receive the June 8 deadline adjustment for individual and business returns.
- Taxpayers who need copies of previously filed returns to assist with their filings will not have to pay standard fees, providing additional financial relief during recovery efforts.
- Residents requesting copies should submit forms 4506 or 4506-T and mark them with "Tennessee Winter Storm Fern" in bold letters at the top for proper identification and processing.
