WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service today announced disaster tax relief for all individuals and businesses affected by Hurricane Helene, including the entire states of Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina and parts of Florida, Tennessee and Virginia.


Taxpayers in these areas now have until May 1, 2025, to file various federal individual and business tax returns and make tax payments. Among other things, this includes 2024 individual and business returns normally due during March and April 2025, 2023 individual and corporate returns with valid extensions and quarterly estimated tax payments.


The IRS is offering relief to any area designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Besides all of Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina, this currently includes 41 counties in Florida, eight counties in Tennessee and six counties and one city in Virginia.


Individuals and households that reside or have a business in any one of these localities qualify for tax relief. The same relief will be available to other states and localities that receive FEMA disaster declarations related to Hurricane Helene. The current list of eligible localities is always available on the Tax relief in disaster situations page on IRS.gov.

Love Hendo: Helping Our Businesses Recover

10.15.2024


Our community is known for its resilience, and now, more than ever, we need to come together to support the local businesses impacted by Tropical Storm Helene. In response, the Chamber’s All in for Hendo crisis fund is here to provide a fund for our members to get back on their feet.


Originally created during COVID-19, All in for Hendo is once again being used to address unforeseen challenges faced by our business community. This fund helps ensure no business is left behind.


Here’s how you can make a difference:

  • Purchase a Love Hendo T-shirt: For just $20, with half the proceeds going directly to the fund. (Special thanks to Big Frog Custom T-Shirts of Asheville for partnering with us on this effort.)
  • Become a Business Champion, Partner, or Supporter: Sponsorship opportunities start at $500, with recognition in our weekly e-news and other Chamber materials.


You can also support local businesses by purchasing gift cards or using their services during this critical time, especially as our tourist season has been affected by the storm.


Along with financial assistance, the Chamber is here to meet your workspace needs. We offer rental spaces that can accommodate both groups and individuals, equipped with

Wi-Fi and other technological tools to ensure your business continues to operate smoothly during this challenging period.



For more details on how you can help or to see a list of member businesses to support, visit our Love Hendo webpage. Together, we can help our local economy recover and thrive.
