The State of Kentucky will automatically grant you a 6-month tax extension if you were approved for a federal tax extension. However, you will need to submit Kentucky Form 40A-102 (PDF) if you need to make a state tax payment or if you were not approved for a federal extension.

If you do not need to make a tax payment and have received an approval notification from FileLater, there’s nothing more to do. Be sure to attach a copy of your federal extension form (IRS Tax Form 4868 ) to your Kentucky tax return when filed.

Filing for a Kentucky tax extension will not provide you with additional time to pay any tax balance due, which must be paid by the original filing deadline, or interest and other payment penalties may apply.

For additional information, please visit the State of Kentucky Department of Revenue website.
