If you were approved for a federal tax extension, the State of Louisiana will automatically grant you a six month tax extension. If you were not approved for a federal tax extension, or you need to submit a state tax payment, you'll need to submit Louisiana Form R-2868 (PDF).

Filing for a Louisiana tax extension will not grant you extra time to pay any tax balance due. Your balance must be paid by May 15 to avoid possible penalties.

If you already received an approval notification from ExpressExtension, and you don't need to make a tax payment, then you're all done.

If you do not need to make a tax payment and have received an approval notification from ExpressExtension, there’s nothing more to do. Please be sure to attach printed a copy of your ExpressExtension tax extension form when you submit your tax return.
