I filed out form 4868 and e filed it but when I checked I saw that question #8 was checked by accident that states that I am out of the country. Do I need to contact the IRS and try to get this corrected? Thank you.

    Checking the out of country box gives you 2 extra months to file your return.  Since this does not apply to you, just be sure to file your return by 10/15/25, the normal six month extension date.

     

    Please see Form 4868 Instructions.
