Filing a State Individual Tax Return Extension
1
The requirements for filing a state extension vary by state. The process for your specific state will be explained in the filing steps. See Form 4868 - Filing a Federal Individual Tax Return Extension (Consumer) for detailed steps. 

In some cases, no extension form is needed. The program will indicate what is required for your state. If you need to print a payment voucher or extension form, you will be prompted to do so in the filing steps.
