Disaster Return

[TaniaKing]

I'm located in FL and have clients that will be taking advantage of the extended deadline offered to those impacted by the hurricane. How do I indicate that in Proconnect when filing the tax return?

We had a previous hurricane that allowed an extension of time to file, but every return I filed after the original due date received a letter/penalty. I had to reply to each one to get the penalty abated. I'm wondering if I'm supposed to indicate on the tax return somehow that I'm late due to a disaster. 

Any advice would be appreciated!

IRS identifies most eligible taxpayers by their ZIP Code.  There are examples of IRS abating ES penalties, even when calculated and paid, for those who qualify.  Do you have clients who actually live in a disaster area, but file with a ZIP Code outside it?  That may be what happened last time.
