Time Is Running Out to File by October 15th!
More than a quarter of the nearly 13 million taxpayers who requested an automatic six-month extension this year have yet to file. Although Oct. 15 is the last day for most people, some still have more time, including members of the military and others serving in Afghanistan or other combat zone localities who typically have until at least 180 days after they leave the combat zone to both file returns and pay any taxes due.
Before filing, we can help you find often-overlooked credits and deductions including:
- The Earned Income Tax Credit
- Savers credit, claimed on Form 8880 such as an IRA or 401(k)
- American Opportunity Tax Credit, claimed on Form 8863, and other education tax benefits for parents and college students.
- Same-sex couples, legally married in jurisdictions that recognize their marriages, are now treated as married, regardless of where they live. This means that they generally must file their returns using either the married filing jointly or married filing separately filing status.
Time is running out! Call us TODAY so we can help you file by the October 15th deadline AND ensure you are paying the least amount of tax possible by taking all credits and deductions that you are entitled to on your filing.
