As Tax season approaches, we want to make sure you have your taxes filed on time. Here are the tax dates you'll need to know.
Important: All requests for extensions on your tax returns must be received by the IRS by the original filing deadline (3/15/19, or 4/15/19 - depending on the type of tax return that you're filing).
Also Important: Requesting an extension to file your taxes is not a request to extend your tax payment. Your taxes must be paid by the applicable tax deadline.
