Answer 2

If you have paid at least 90% of your tax liability by April 15 (this year it's the 17th), then you would only pay interest on the balance. If y ou have paid less, then the failure to pay penalty is 0.5% per month as long as you have filed an extension. If y ou don't file an extension, then the failure to file penalty hits you for 4.5% per month.

You can use Form 4868 to get an automatic six-month extension for your federal return (it at the IRS web site: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4868.pdf?portlet=3 ) When you prepare the form you need to estimate your total taxes and payments (withholding and quarterly estimated taxes). If you show that you owe money, you should send it with the form.

You didn't mention your state, but some states require that you file a form with them even if you won't owe money. Most, however, will accept a copy of the federal Form 4868 with the tax return.
