IRS Offers Tips for Taxpayers Who Missed the Tax Deadline

  • File as soon as possible.  If you owe federal income tax, you should file and pay as soon as you can to minimize any penalty and interest charges. There is no penalty for filing a late return if you are due a refund.

  • Penalties and interest may be due.  If you missed the April 15 deadline, you may have to pay penalties and interest. The IRS may charge penalties for late filing and for late payment. The law generally does not allow a waiver of interest charges. However, the IRS will consider a reduction of these penalties if you can show a reasonable cause for being late.

  • E-file is your best option.  IRS e-file programs are available through Oct. 15. E-file is the easiest, safest and most accurate way to file. With e-file, you will receive confirmation that the IRS has received your tax return. If you e-file and are due a refund, the IRS will normally issue it within 21 days.

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

  • Installment Agreements are available.  If you need more time to pay your federal income taxes, you can request a payment agreement with the IRS.

  • Refunds 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 be entitled to a refund.

Last-Minute Filers: Avoiding Some Common Errors
 
                                          Here are some ways to avoid common mistakes.

File electronically. Filing electronically, whether through e-file or IRS Free File, vastly reduces tax return errors, as the tax software does the calculations, flags common errors and prompts taxpayers for missing information.

Mail a paper return to the right address.

Take a close look at the tax tables. When figuring tax using the tax tables, taxpayers should be sure to use the correct column for the filing status claimed.

Fill in all requested information clearly. When entering information on the tax return, including Social Security numbers, take the time to be sure it is correct and easy to read. Also, check only one filing status and the appropriate exemption boxes.

Review all figures. While software catches and prevents many errors on e-file returns, math errors remain common on paper returns.

Get the right routing and account numbers.

Sign and date the return.

Attach all required forms. Paper filers need to attach W-2s and other forms that reflect tax withholding, to the front of their returns.

Keep a copy of the return.

Request a Filing Extension. For taxpayers who cannot meet the April 15 deadline, requesting a filing extension is easy and will prevent late filing penalties.

But keep in mind that while an extension grants additional time to file, tax payments are still due April 15.

Owe tax? Get on a Payment Plan...Send What your can!!!

Have you claimed your 2009 Refund??
 
 
If you haven’t filed your 2009 federal tax return, you may still have time to claim your tax refund.

Did you know......... the IRS has $917 million in unclaimed refunds from an estimated 984,000 tax returns that people didn’t file for the 2009 tax year.

The IRS estimates that half the potential refunds for 2009 are more than $500.

Did you know .........You have three years to claim a refund. If you don’t claim your refund within three years, the money becomes property of the U.S. Treasury.

 For 2009 returns, the window closes on April 15, 2013.

You must properly address, postmark and mail your return by that date. There is no penalty for filing a late return if you are due a refund.

By not filing a return, you may miss an important credit — the Earned Income Tax Credit. For 2009, the credit is worth as much as $5,657.

IRS may hold your refund if you have not filed tax returns for 2010 and 2011.

The law allows the use of your federal tax refund to pay any amounts still owed to the IRS or your state tax agency.

 If you have unpaid debts, such as overdue child support or student loans, your refund may be applied to pay that debt.
