New Mexico recognizes and accepts an IRS automatic extension of time to file. If you obtained the federal six-month automatic extension for tax year 2025, you have until October 15, 2026 to file your New Mexico return.
To file a federal extension or for help filling out
Form PIT-EXT to pay any New Mexico tax due by the due date: Menu Path:
Account > File an Extension.
To extend your deadline beyond the six months, submit
Form RPD-41096, Application for Extension of Time to File. Form RPD-41096 can't be e-filed.
Note that this is an extension of time to file, not an extension to pay any tax due.
