Individual Income Tax Filing Relief for Alabama Taxpayers Affected by Hurricane Isaias

The Alabama Department of Revenue (ALDOR) has announced additional tax relief for eligible taxpayers impacted by Hurricane Isaias.
📅 New Filing Deadline: February 4, 2027

Here's what taxpayers need to know:
✅ Automatic Extension: Eligible taxpayers who reside or have a business in one of the 40 Alabama counties included in the state's emergency declaration now have until February 4, 2027, to file individual income tax returns originally due October 15, 2026. No action is required to receive this extension.
📌 Important Reminder: The extension does not apply to 2025 tax year payments that were due April 15, 2026.
📞 Additional Relief: Taxpayers needing relief for other tax filings, or those outside the designated disaster areas experiencing hurricane-related filing difficulties, may request assistance on a case-by-case basis.
