The Virginia state individual income tax return and payment deadline for the tax year 2024 is May 1, 2025. If you are unable to file by this date, Virginia offers an automatic six-month filing extension until November 1, 2025, but payments must still be made by the May 1 deadline to avoid penalties and interest. If you are a fiscal year filer (not calendar year), your return is due on the 15th day of the fourth month after the fiscal year's close. Military personnel stationed outside the U.S. have additional extensions available. In summary:
- Regular individual income tax due date: May 1, 2025
- Automatic filing extension deadline: November 1, 2025 (for filing only, not payment)
- Payment due to avoid penalties: May 1, 2025
These deadlines apply generally, but specific conditions may vary, such as for military members or victims of certain disasters. This information is based on the latest guidelines for 2025 tax filing in Virginia.
