Except as provided in paragraph (2), no extension shall be for more than six months.
(2) (A) In the case of a taxpayer residing or traveling abroad, returns shall be filed no later than the 15th day of the sixth month following the close of the taxable year, unless the requirements for extension have been fulfilled on or before that date.
(B) In the case of a partnership required to file a return under Section 18633 or 18633.5, the extension shall be for no more than seven months.
