An extension of time to file does not extend the time for full payment of the tax and does not preclude the assessment of penalty and interest for underpayment of tax due.  \nHOW TO FILE  \nThe department offers three ways to request an extension of time to file a Pennsylvania tax return. However, not all methods are available for all types of filers.  \n1. All types of filers (PA-40, PA-40 NRC, PA-41 , and PA- 20S/PA-65) can file the REV-276 (with or without additional tax due) by the due date of the return to receive an automatic extension of time to file. PA-40 and PA-40 NRC filers will receive an automatic six-month extension, PA-20S/PA-65 filers will receive an automatic five-month extension while PA-41 filers will receive an automatic five-and-one-halfmonth extension. See Amount of Payment instructions.  \n2. PA-40 filers with additional tax due may pay in full the amount of Pennsylvania personal income tax expected tobe reasonably due on or before the original due date of the return via electronic funds transfer without mailing the REV-276 . Visit [mypath.pa.gov](mypath.pa.gov) and select an Extension payment to pay via electronic funds transfer by credit or debit card.  \n3. PA-40, PA-41, PA-40 NRC, and PA-20S/PA-65 filers may also file an electronic version of the REV-276 (with or without additional tax due) using Fed/State e-file. Payments can be made via electronic funds transfer (EFT) or paper check. Paper checks must be mailed to the department at the address noted below along with the completed application. See Amount of Payment instructions.  \nNOTE: Blanket requests for extensions of time to file  \nPennsylvania tax returns will not be considered. A separate REV-276 must be submitted for each return.  \nELECTRONIC SERVICES  \nIndividuals can remit estimated, extension , and tax due payments through the Department's myPATH portal. Visit [mypath.pa.gov](mypath.pa.gov) and select Make a Payment to pay via electronic funds transfer. Payments equal to or greater than $15,000 must be made electronically. Payments not made electronically will be subject to a penalty equal to 3 percent of the payment amount not to exceed $500.  \nIndividuals can remit estimated, extension, and tax due payments with a credit card or debit card. Call ACI Payments toll free directly at 1-800-2PAYTAX (1-800-272-9829) to pay with a credit or debit card.
