INDIANA – The Indiana Department of Revenue (DOR) is reminding taxpayers who requested more time that the state filing deadline for 2025 Individual Income Taxes is rapidly approaching on November 16.
Taxpayers who successfully obtained a federal extension (which had an October 15 deadline) were automatically granted a corresponding extension for their Indiana state return. The DOR urges these individuals to file by the November 16 cutoff to avoid late filing penalties.
Severe Storm Disaster Relief:
An important filing and payment exception is available for many Indiana individuals and corporations impacted by the severe storms and tornadoes that began on August 11, 2026. This tax relief is available to any area designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) as a disaster area.
Working in coordination with the IRS, the DOR has significantly expanded the eligibility for this relief. The disaster designation now includes a total of 30 Indiana counties (listed below). Nine additional counties were added to this list in October.
For taxpayers within these designated disaster zones, returns and payments that would normally be due by November 15, 2026, have been extended until February 1, 2027.
Affected Counties:
- Carroll, Cass, Dearborn, Decatur, Delaware, Fayette, Fountain, Franklin, Grant, Hamilton, Hancock, Henry, Lake, LaPorte, Madison, Marion, Morgan, Parke, Pike, Porter, Pulaski, Putnam, Randolph, Rush, Starke, Tipton, Union, Vermillion, Warren and Wayne.
Taxpayers seeking more details on standard extensions or disaster relief can find additional information on the DOR’s website and disaster relief webpage, as well as at IRS.gov.
