(NewsNation) — Following an IRS announcement that residents and business owners in Arkansas can receive a tax deadline extension, residents in all or parts of 13 states can file after the Apr. 15 deadline.

Following severe storms in the Razorback State, the extension was applied to all taxpayers in Arkansas, with the deadline now postponed to Nov. 3.

The storms hit Arkansas last week, just weeks after tornadoes hit the area. As a result of similar destruction across the United States, deadlines have been extended in several states.

Am I qualified for an extension?

To qualify for the extension, in some cases, you need to be a taxpaying resident or business owner of an affected state.

All taxpayers in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina and South Carolina are eligible for an extension and have a deadline of May 1.

Taxpayers in parts of Alaska, New Mexico and Virginia also share that deadline.

Arkansas, Tennessee and various West Virginia counties have a Nov. 3 deadline. Meanwhile, Los Angeles County, California, taxpayers have an Oct. 15 deadline.

What counties receive a deadline?

Some states have not been offered a blanket extension, with only specific cities, boroughs and counties qualifying:

• Alaska – City and Borough of Juneau
• California – Los Angeles County
• New Mexico – Chaves County
• Virginia – Albemarle, Appomattox, Bedford, Bland and Botetourt counties. Bristol City, Buchanan, Buckingham, Carroll, Charlotte counties; Covington City; Craig County; Danville City; Dickenson and Floyd counties; Galax City; Giles, Grayson, Greene, Lee, Madison, Montgomery and Nelson counties; Norton City; Patrick, Pittsylvania and Pulaski counties; Radford City; Roanoke City; Roanoke, Russell, Scott, Smyth, Tazewell, Washington, Wise and Wythe counties.
• West Virginia – Boone, Greenbrier, Lincoln, Logan, McDowell, Mercer, Mingo, Monroe, Raleigh, Summers, Wayne and Wyoming counties.

For further information, the IRS issued a release on April 4 regarding 12 of the 13 states and a separate release on Arkansas on April 14.

What do I need to do to get the extension?

In most cases, nothing.

Per the IRS tax relief in disaster situation hub, the IRS “automatically identifies taxpayers located in the covered disaster area and applies filing and payment relief.”

Should that not occur, taxpayers are encouraged to call the number on any IRS-issued late payment notice.

If a taxpaying individual or business was affected by a designated disaster area, they are urged to reach out to the IRS at 866-562-5227.
