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.
