Tax Filing Deadline Postponed by Two Months for 2022 Returns
September Deadline Extended
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has announced a two-month extension for the 2022 tax filing deadline. The new deadline for most taxpayers is now Tuesday, October 17, 2023. This extension applies to both individuals and businesses.Things to Consider When Filing Your 2022 Return
While the filing deadline has been extended, it's still important to start preparing your tax return as soon as possible. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Gather all necessary documents, such as your W-2 forms, 1099 forms, and any receipts or deductions you plan to claim.
- Consider using tax preparation software or hiring a tax professional to help you file your return.
- File your return electronically to speed up the processing time.
If you need additional time to file your return beyond the October 17 deadline, you can request an extension. However, you must file Form 4868, Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, by the original filing deadline.
