If you want an automatic six-month extension to file your tax return, you can file Form 4868 by April 15th, or the next business day when the 15th falls on a weekend or Emacipation day. However, you must pay any tax you estimate will be due by 4/17/2013 or you may be subject to interest and penalties on overdue taxes. Your actual return would then be due on October 15.
