Get the feather extentions mug.A phrase increasingly used on cable news when the words "if" and "when" would be more concise without sacrificing accuracy. The reason why it's used this way is because it sounds less abrasive. A less abrasive-sounding phrase is helpful for manipulating you.

If you hear the phrase "to the extent" in ordinary conversation, pay attention because someone may be manipulating you (or, alternatively, trying not to hurt your feelings too much).

Correct usage:
You may be required to pay taxes to the extent of your debt forgiveness.
This sentence could be reconstructed as: If you had your debt forgiven, you may be required to pay taxes. But using "to the extent" tells us the scope and limit: the more debt forgiven, the more taxes you will pay (but only up to a certain point). So by using "if" in this context, you miss out on some but not all of the meaning.
