The following is a bulletin from the Virginia Department of Taxation.

Tax Commissioner Craig M. Burns announced that the Department will consider requests from sales tax dealers for an extension of the due date for filing and payment of the February 2020 sales tax return due March 20, 2020. If the request is granted, the Department will allow filing and payment of such return on April 20, 2020 with a waiver of any penalties that would have applied. However, interest will accrue even if an extension is granted. 

Dealers should submit a request for extension by utilizing the secure e-mail system available on the Department’s website, by faxing to (804) 254-6111, or writing to the following address:
