The IRS is providing tax relief to victims of the Mississippi water crisis, effective Aug. 30, 2022. You qualify for relief if you reside or have a business in Hinds County. Affected individuals and businesses now have until Feb. 15, 2023, to file returns and pay any taxes that were originally due during the relief period. This covers returns due on or after Aug. 30 and before Feb. 15, including quarterly estimated tax payments; quarterly payroll/excise tax returns; and individual and business returns with valid extensions. Affected taxpayers outside the covered disaster area should call the IRS disaster hotline to request relief. For more details: https://bit.ly/3x2TfUo
