June 30, 2020

The Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) announced on Monday, June 29 that the 2019 tax filing deadline will not be postponed. The deadline remains July 15, 2020. Additionally, individual taxpayers who cannot meet the July 15 due date can request an automatic extension of time to file until October 15. Keep in mind that the extension provides additional time to file the tax return, it is not an extension to pay any taxes due. Any taxes owed are still due on July 15. “The IRS understands that those affected by the coronavirus may not be able to pay their balances in full by July 15, but we have many payment options to help taxpayers,” said IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig. “These easy-to-use payment options are available on IRS.gov, and most can be done automatically without reaching out to an IRS representative.” For questions or concerns, contact your account manager.
