CNMI: US tax agency extends deadline for those affected by Super Typhoon Bavi
People in the Marianas affected by Super Typhoon Bavi now have until February for a range of tax deadlines.
The US Internal Revenue Service has extended the deadline for taxpayers in the Northern Mariana Islands affected by Super Typhoon Bavi to file certain federal tax returns and make payments. The relief applies to affected individuals, businesses, and certain recognized government or philanthropic relief workers. The new deadline is 1 February 2027, which is later than the original deadline that falls on or after 4 July and before 1 February.
The relief covers a range of tax returns, including estimated income tax payments, quarterly payroll returns, and certain excise tax returns. Affected taxpayers may also claim disaster-related casualty losses on their federal income tax return and may be eligible for additional relief, such as certain disaster distributions not subject to the usual additional 10 percent early-distribution tax.
