Victims of the storms and tornadoes that rolled through Georgia two weeks ago are getting a break from the Internal Revenue Service. It's not a break from paying taxes, but people who live in seven counties declared disaster areas have an extended deadline to file. Those affected taxpayers now will have until May 19th to file returns or make tax payments. Those counties include Fulton, DeKalb, Jefferson, Burke, Bartow, Floyd, and Polk. Affected taxpayers must write ‘Georgia Severe Storms and Tornadoes’ on the top of their return.
