IR-2007-79, April 4, 2007

WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service today issued a reminder that 2006 federal tax returns must be filed, and any taxes owed must be paid, by no later than April 17, 2007


Traditionally, the deadline for filing and paying is April 15. This year, however, taxpayers nationwide will have extra time to file and pay because April 15 falls on a Sunday and the following day, Monday, April 16, is Emancipation Day, a legal holiday in the District of Columbia.

Previously, the April 17 deadline applied just to individuals in the District of Columbia and six eastern states who are served by an IRS processing facility in Massachusetts, where the Massachusetts state holiday Patriots Day will be observed on April 16.

Well, I know tax day has passed, and I filed my tax return on time regardless of the IRS removing me from their mailing list.

Are you on their no call list, too?

I certainly hope so!

Here's a good & true IRS story. A friend didn't file taxes for 2-3 yrs. The next time he filed, he received a nice chunk of change back (many, many thousands) that was totally correct. The IRS audited him 'cause of not filing for 2-3 years.

He brought all his records to his accountant & with all the penalities etc., the IRS owed him over $6,000.00. He told the auditor that the IRS could have kept all the money; however since he was audited, he wanted all his money [refund money] now.
