Based on the time Zone you provide to us, we record the exact date and time you transmit the extension, also known as Electronic Postmark. The IRS compares the Electronic Postmark with the filing deadline and determines if the extension was filed on time or not. 

If the electronic postmark is on or before the filing deadline and the provided information on the extension is accurate, the IRS will approve your extension and consider it as timely filed. However, if the electronic postmark is dated after the extended filing deadline, there is a possibility of the IRS rejecting it for late filing.
