It seems that I would need to file an extension to file the Trust Tax return. Could you please advise me as to what form and what filing address I would need to mail the extension?

Thanks a lot!

What Form do I use to file an extension request for a Trust?Use Form 7004 "Application For Automatic 6-Month Extension of Time to File Certain Business Income Tax , Information, and Other Returns".

On this form, on line 1, enter the code number 04 if the extension request is for an Estate.

On this form, on line 1, enter the code number 05 if the extension request is for a Domestic Trust.
