The IRS has granted Maine tax relief to areas of the state impacted by severe storms late last year. Affected taxpayers now have extended tax deadlines of June 17, 2024, to file certain tax returns and make tax payments. The tax deadline extension for Maine follows tax relief for Connecticut and Rhode Island, announced by the IRS earlier this year.
On Dec. 17, 2023, severe storms and high winds struck areas of Maine, resulting in more than half a million power outages and more than $20 million in public infrastructure damage. President Biden declared affected Maine counties as federal disaster areas last month.
