TMTW #399 Don’t Miss the October 15th Deadline

Tax and Money Tip this Week:
Don’t Miss the October 15th Deadline
September 5, 2018 | No. 399

Final Filing Deadline Reminder

If you need to file a Form 1040 (individual return), the deadline to file is October 15, 2018.  This assumes you had filed for an extension prior to April 17, 2018.  You also have until October 15, 2018 to fund a SEP-IRA for tax year 2017.

As a reminder, putting your tax returns on extension can be a good thing – but penalties to miss the extension deadline can be steep, up to 25% penalty of taxes owed, so make sure that you make the October 15th deadline.

Give us a call if you need help meeting your deadline.
