deadline extension
Postponed due date
A deadline extension is additional time granted beyond an original due date for completing a task or submitting work.
Students request deadline extensions from professors; employees negotiate them with managers.
The extension may be formal or informal, and granting one often depends on circumstances and the requester's track record.
I asked for a deadline extension on the project because of a family emergency.
