Tax Return Deadline

Posted on March 30, 2011 by Leasa Magnuson in Individual Tax

The deadline for filing individual and partnership tax returns is looming in the very near future, April 18th to be exact. I can’t help but wonder if the government shuts down like they keep threatening to do does that mean that tax returns no longer have a deadline?

At the very least I would like an extension until July. First they make it so I can’t file anything until the middle of February due to their late decisions in December. Now I only have 2 months to prepare returns. Then in an effort to get correct information out of the brokerage firms they extend the deadline on 1099’s till the end February, giving me only 1 1/2 months to prepare returns. Even with the extension brokerage firms still send out corrected 1099’s and so now it is the end of March when I get the information I need with only 2 weeks until the deadline. How about an extension on filing tax returns?? I am just saying that if everybody gets an extension on when they have to get the information to me shouldn’t I get an extension on getting it to the government who is in such dire straits it may shut down? I think July is fair. It can take the first 3 months to send out all the documents necessary and then another 3 months to prepare the returns.

Since the deadline is looming this blog is going on Hiatus. Look for more tidbits April 27th!
