The Tax Deadline Is Approaching
Essential steps before the April filing deadline: organizing W2s and 1099s, filing Form 4868 for an automatic extension to file, estimating tax payments to avoid penalties, and setting up IRS payment plans.
Filing on time avoids costly failure to file penalties and interest charges. Gather all income and expense statements, W2s, and 1099s to ensure an accurate return.
If you need more time, Form 4868 provides an extension to file, though any estimated tax balance owed must still be paid by the April deadline. If you cannot pay in full, the IRS offers structured payment plans.
