Missed the Tax Deadline

If you missed the tax filing deadline, don’t panic.

Here’s some advice from the IRS.


•File as soon as you can. If you owe taxes, you should file and pay as soon as you can. This will help minimize the interest and penalty charges. There is no penalty for filing a late return if you are due a refund.

•Pay as much as you can. If you owe tax but can’t pay it all at once, try to pay as much as you can when you file your tax return. Pay the remaining balance as soon as possible to stop further penalties and interest.

•Make a payment agreement online. If you need more time to pay your taxes, you can apply for a payment plan with the IRS. You can mail Form 9465, Installment Agreement Request.

•A refund may be waiting. If you’re due a refund, you should file as soon as possible to get it. Even if you are not required to file, you may still get a refund. This could apply if you had taxes withheld from your wages or you qualify for certain tax credits. If you don’t file your return within three years, you could forfeit your right to the refund.
