With Tax Day arriving, New Yorkers are urged to take advantage of free filing tools, including Direct File and Free File, according to iHeartRadio. These services are accessible via phone, tablet, or computer.
The state’s tax department has extended Call Center hours and offers online guidance for late filers. While extensions are available, they don’t delay payment deadlines—partial payments are encouraged to reduce penalties.
Taxpayers can also use the “Check Your Refund” tool online for the quickest updates on refund status.
