The federal tax deadline is a day that many Americans face every year with a mixture of trepidation and annoyance. For individuals who complete and file their tax returns early, the annual deadline is a reason for getting the chore of filing their tax return finished long before the deadline. But for individuals who owe taxes and need to pay additional tax money, the deadline is a headache.
Annual Deadline Dates
Generally, the federal deadline for federal tax returns is April 15 of every year. However, there are occasionally years when the deadline may be shifted to a later date. Usually, this is the result of a deadline falling on a weekend, when post offices are closed. However, in some cases, like 2007 the date may be shifted even later. In that particular year, not only did the date fall on a Sunday, but then there was a holiday the following day, so the deadline was shifted from April 15 to April 17 that year. However, this was highly unusual.
Summary
The annual federal tax deadline is on April 15 of almost every year. Before filing your annual taxes, double check to make sure that the date does not fall on a weekend or has not be changed due to unusual circumstances.
