If you're a U.S. citizen or resident alien living abroad, your tax season isn’t over yet. While most taxpayers face the usual April 15 filing deadline, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) automatically grants U.S. expats a two-month extension, giving you until June 16, 2025, to file your 2024 federal income tax return and pay any taxes owed.
At Bizora, we specialize in helping global entrepreneurs, digital nomads, and remote U.S. workers stay compliant with federal and state tax laws—even across borders.
The automatic extension applies to:
You do not need to file a separate request (such as Form 4868) to get this automatic extension.

There are multiple ways to file your U.S. taxes while living abroad:
Tip: Make sure your address and bank information are accurate to avoid delays with refunds or correspondence.
If June 16 isn’t enough time, expats can request an additional extension to October 15, 2025 by submitting Form 4868 before the June deadline. However, this does not extend your time to pay—any owed taxes are still due by June 16 to avoid interest charges.
At Bizora, we understand that managing U.S. tax compliance from abroad can be overwhelming. We help global founders and professionals with understanding your compliance obligations and what you can do to stay ahead of them.
