Once complete, all you need to do is print your form and mail it to the address we provide.  Please Note: An extension to file doesn’t mean more time to pay, if you owe any tax due, make your tax payment by the original due date of your state return to avoid late payment penalties. 

Any Special Requirements

  • You must mail Form IT-303 before the statutory return due date and attach a copy to the return when filed. The state will notify you only if your extension request is denied.
  • Also, attach a copy of Federal Form 4868 or the IRS confirmation letter (if you request a Federal extension electronically) to the Georgia return when filed.
