IRS delays tax deadlines for most Iowa counties due to storms

August 22, 2024

In recent months, the IRS has announced delayed tax deadlines for more than half of Iowa’s counties that were significantly impacted by severe storms.

The adjustments were made in the wake of damaging storms that hit parts of the state in April, May and June. 

The tax relief applies to individual, corporate, and estate and trust income tax returns; partnership returns; S corporation returns; returns of tax-exempt organizations; and employment and certain excise tax returns that have either an original or extended due date occurring within each of the respective dates listed below. Relief also applies to payments due during the respective windows, including the quarterly estimated tax payments due on September 16, 2024, and the quarterly payroll and excise tax returns. 

(Note: There is not similar relief being offered by the Iowa Department of Revenue. More details are shared at the bottom of this article.)
