Your Tax Question - 071

In case you were wondering...

It is 4 am Eastern Standard Time on April 1. There are only 17 days left until taxes are due and I still have clients that have not gotten me their paperwork. Yes, we can, in a pinch, file for an extension but I am that irritating guy who in college got term papers written and handed in 2 months early. Now, I have the words of the White Rabbit echoing in my head - "Oh dear, I'm late, I'm late."

Anyway, this is just a friendly reminder to any of you who still need to have your taxes prepared that you have until the 18th of the month to get them filed.

Your Tax Question - 049

Dear John, I have heard that 2010 taxes are due on April 18th. Is this true? Thanks, Helen

Yes Helen, it is true. Because of a holiday in Washington DC this year, the deadline for getting your taxes postmarked is April 18th. However, I suggest that you don't procrastinate with getting your taxes done because should something happen the IRS will nail you with a penalty and interest.

Get a hold of me and I will help you get your taxes finished and delivered on time.

Thanks,

John
