Today is the Filing Extension Deadline

Most taxpayers who requested an extension of time to file their 2018 tax return must file today, October 15th. Those filing today who also owe should pay as much as possible to reduce interest and penalties.

There are some groups who still have time to file after October 15:

● Members of the military and others serving in combat zones typically have until at least 180 days after they leave the combat zone to both file returns and pay any taxes due.

● Taxpayers in federally-declared disaster areas who already had valid extensions may have more time to file.
