IRS extends residents’ tax filing deadline The Internal Revenue Service is extending tax deadlines for individuals and businesses in North Texas after severe storms hit the area in late May. What’s happening? Taxpayers within select counties, includ- ing Denton, have until Nov. 1 to file federal individual or business tax returns and make payments, per a May 28 news release. Residents and businesses in more than 20 counties are qualified for the extension. If a qualified taxpayer has deadlines after April 26 but before Nov. 1, their deadline will be extended to Nov. 1.
