Should I file a tax extension?

by Jarred
(Virginia)

April 15th 2021 will be the “2 year deadline” for me to file so I will be sending mine in this month (Jan 2021).

If it takes longer than 3 months to be approved should I file for a tax extension or file my taxes normally. The language says it has to be “filed” by that second year so I would assume if I send it by certified mail and have a receipt that shows I sent it this month then I’d be fine and I should pay my taxes to avoid penalties.
