ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York tax officials expect about 350,000 state income tax returns to be filed ahead of the extension deadline.

New York residents who were granted a filing extension must file their returns on or before Monday. Tax officials are encouraging extension filers to file electronically.

Once this batch is finalized, the Tax Department says it will have processed more than 10 million personal income tax returns for this year.
