If you don't owe any taxes do you have to file for an extension just to file the paperwork after the April deadline?
No, you don't need to file an extension if you don't owe the IRS any money. You only need to file an extension if you need more time to pay. The current law is you have three years to file for a refund and after that you forfeit it to the IRS. The IRS does not charge penalties to people that are owed refunds even if they are filing after due date (usually April 15). Just make sure you file within the 3 years. But if you owe money, even if you file an extension, if you do NOT pay by April 15, then you will owe interest and penalties on the money you owe. The extension is form 4868 and can be filed online through IRS.gov e-file, or by mailing in the form. The extension is NOT an extension for time to PAY, it is just an extension for time to file. Even if you are owed a refund, the IRS says that you are "required" to file if you made over the standard deduction. But in all reality, if they owe you money, they don't want to see you get it. If they owe you money, they don't care when or if you file, but they do like to keep tabs on you. There will be no penalties.

How long is a tax extension?
Six monthsIf you file for an extension on your individual tax return, the IRS will give you six more months to complete the return. The IRS changed the extensions in 2006. There is now only the option for 6-month extensions (it used to be that you would file one extension, and could then file a second one for a total of 6 months). The IRS finally figured out that it would save a lot of work (and paper) to just give everyone a 6-month extension. That means an individual tax return would be due on October 15.Note: The extension is almost always for "time to file", NOT time to pay. You are still expected to pay by April 15. You must be entirely paid when you ask for the extension, or it won't be considered valid OR have penalties.

Is there a fee to file a tax extension even if I don't owe any taxes?
No. Especially if you owe no tax. The ONLY extension is for an extension to file, not to pay. You should have paid at least what you would estimate to have owed, the extension essentially becoming to justify and support that estimate. If you underestimate, a small penalty and interest would be charged when that is determined. Otherwise, the estimate works, and if less than proven, will be refunded. ====== To clarify: There is no fee charged by the IRS. You can get the form for free from the IRS or the IRS web site and mail it in by yourself (for the cost of a postage stamp). If you want to electronically file it, the IRS does not accept efile directly from the public. You have to go through a private efile provider who may charge you for efiling. Similarly, if you want to use the services of a tax professional, they may charge you a fee.
