Monday, March 23, 2020

(Washington, DC) – Today, Mayor Muriel Bowser and Chief Financial Officer Jeffrey DeWitt announced that the deadline for taxpayers to file and pay their 2019 District of Columbia individual and fiduciary income tax returns (D-40, D-41, and D-40B), partnership tax returns (D-65), and franchise tax returns (D-20, D-30) is extended to July 15, 2020. This means taxpayers will have an additional 90 days to file and pay from the original deadline of April 15, 2020.

The Office of Tax and Revenue (OTR) encourages taxpayers who are able to file their returns electronically to do so.

Effective Monday, March 23, OTR will close all of its walk-in centers, located at 1101 4th Street, SW. This means there will be no in-person transactions. OTR is continuing to process tax returns, issue refunds and help taxpayers to the greatest extent possible, and taxpayers can still receive assistance by calling OTR’s Customer Service Center, at (202) 727-4TAX (4829), Monday through Friday from 8:15 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Taxpayers are encouraged to use OTR’s online portal, MyTax.DC.gov, for their tax matters.
