How to Purchase and File a Tax Extension

Overview

Tax extensions allow additional time to file a return, but do not extend the time to pay any taxes owed. All extensions must be purchased through the Client Hub and submitted through the Taxx Savage software for review and e-filing.

Step 1: Purchase the Extension in the Client Hub

1. Navigate to the Client Hub:
   👉 https://hub.taxxsavage.com/
2. From the left-hand menu, select File Extensions
3. Extensions are $15 per extension
4. Select:
   • The appropriate tax year
   • The number of extensions you are purchasing
5. For each extension, enter:
   • First Initial
   • Last Name
   • Last 4 digits of the Social Security Number
6. Click Add after entering each extension
7. Once all extensions are entered, click Purchase Extensions
8. Complete payment through the secure payment portal

Step 2: Complete the Extension in Taxx Savage Software

1. Log in to your Taxx Savage Software account
2. Open the client’s tax return
3. Navigate to the Federal Section
4. Select Miscellaneous Forms
5. Click Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File (Form 4868)

Step 3: Complete Form 4868

Enter the following information:

• Tax Liability
  Enter the total estimated tax liability
  (You may select “Use Current Liability Amount” to auto-fill)
• Total Payments
  Enter total taxes already paid (withholdings + estimated payments)
• Amount Paid
  Enter the amount being paid with the extension (if applicable)
• Out of Country
  Check if the taxpayer is outside the United States
• Electronic Payment (Optional)
  If paying electronically, select the option and enter bank details

Final Step: Submit for Review

After completing Form 4868:

• Mark the return for Review
• The review team will process and e-file the extension with the IRS

Important Notes

• All extensions must be paid through the Client Hub before submission
• Extensions and amended returns must go through review before filing
• Filing an extension gives you more time to file — not more time to pay
• Estimate and pay any taxes owed by the original deadline to avoid penalties

• Individual returns and extensions are due by April 15
• If April 15 falls on a weekend → deadline moves to the next business day
• If Emancipation Day (April 16) affects the deadline → may extend to April 17

Submission Timing

• Submit returns/extensions by 11:59 PM local time on the deadline
• Submit early to avoid last-minute disruptions
