Heppner. "It was around the last of January. I had some money coming back." Extensions available Oregonian who cannot meet the last minute rush to prepare their federal income tax returns may apply for an automatic extension, says IRS District Director in Oregon, T. Blair Evans. Form '4868, "Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File U.S. Individual Income Tax Return," filed on or before April 15 extends the due date until June 15. Evans stressed that the application is not an extension of time to pay. Individuals who expect to owe additional tax must compute the expect ed balance due and send it with the extension request. Failure to do so will result in interest and penalty charges. Taxpayers who have their forms prepared but do not have the money to pay should file the form and pay as much as they can. A bill for the remaining balance due will be sent by IRS after the return has been processed. Failure to file the return or the extension will result in a five percent penalty per month up to 25 percent. Interest is charged at 20 ' percent a year on any unpaid tax from April 15 until the date paid. Taxpayers who expect refunds are not required to make payment with the exten sion form. The application is still required, however, as a matter of law, stated an IRS spokesperson. Extension forms may be obtained at all IRS offices or by calling the IRS forms line listed in the local phone directory. Evans advised Ore gonians'to call early, allowing seven to ten davs for delivery. FOR SERVICE YOU CAN DEPEND ON - If K. We Are The Team You Can Depend On for All Your Farm Chemical Needs !
