how to file a tax extension

I may not be able to complete my return before the deadline. Can someone explain how to file a tax extension and whether it also extends the time to pay taxes owed?

To file a U.S. federal tax extension, submit IRS Form 4868 electronically or by mail by the original filing deadline. You generally get six additional months, but taxes owed are still due by the original deadline.

To request an extension to file your U.S. federal tax return, you can submit an IRS Form 4868 either online or through the mail before the original deadline for filing. You will get six more months to file your tax returns, but the taxes must be paid on time.
