This law makes it easier for people and businesses to get extra time on federal tax deadlines after a disaster. The IRS can now grant filing and payment delays when a governor (or the D.C. mayor) asks for help after a state-declared disaster, not just after a federal disaster. It covers events like hurricanes, wildfires, floods, earthquakes, and more, and includes D.C., Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands. It also lengthens the automatic extension for certain affected taxpayers and relief workers from 60 to 120 days.
