Extension on my tax refund?

I lost my 2007 w2, and need to get a new one...but it's april 15. Do I need an extension on my tax refund?

Here's the direct link to Form 4868. Print it out, fill it out, and mail it in.

Make sure you owe no taxes since the extension only gives you additional time to file, not additional time to pay.

If you have already done the math and are due a refund, you will not be penalized for filing after April 15. The government will be glad to hold onto your money, without interest, until you do file. Delay filing also means that your tax stimulus rebate check will be delayed.

However, if you owe money, you must file today-file for an extension while you wait for the replacement W2 and include the money that you owe and you won;t be penalized.
