The State of Delaware will automatically grant you a 5 1/2 month tax extension if you were approved for a federal tax extension and you have no state tax balance due. You will need to submit Delaware Form 1027 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.

Filing for a Delaware 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 Delaware Department of Revenue website.
