Does making a tax payment on 10-15-2021 to cover all federal taxes due stop a late filing penalty? This is assuming tax return was extended and not filed until after October 15th. I have a client who owes taxes, but will not be ready to file on 10-15-2021. If they make a payment on 10-15-2021 to cover the expected taxes due will they be charged a late filing penalty. I know they will have a late payment penalty and interest.

Yes.
Well, I suppose there could be a late-filing penalty of $0. 🙂
Be aware that there are some elections that are required to be on a timely-filed tax return, so filing late could prevent those elections from being made.
Yes.

Yes. Especially if the return is adjusted at some time in the future.
Late filing penalty plus late payment penalty and interest.
