when is georgia tax deadline

The Georgia state tax deadline for filing 2024 individual income tax returns has been extended to May 1, 2025. This extension applies to all residents due to the impact of Hurricane Helene, which led the IRS and Georgia Department of Revenue to grant additional time. Normally, the tax deadline is April 15, but for 2025, all filings and payments that were due during March or April 2025 have been postponed to May 1, 2025. This extension includes individuals and businesses as well as estimated tax payments originally due in that period. If not filed by May 1, an extension must be requested to avoid penalties.
