Can i mail my taxes on the 19th
The deadline for filing individual tax returns (Form 1040) with the IRS is typically April 15th of each year. However, if you need more time to file, you can request an automatic six-month extension by filing Form 4868 by the original deadline.
If you file Form 4868, you'll get an extension until October 15th to file your taxes. You can file Form 4868 online through the IRS website, by phone, or by mail.
If you're mailing your tax return, make sure to use the correct mailing address and allow plenty of time for it to arrive. The IRS recommends using certified mail with return receipt requested to ensure your return is received.
Here are the mailing addresses for the IRS:
- For paper returns: Internal Revenue Service, P.O. Box 802501, Cincinnati, OH 45280-2501
- For electronic returns: Internal Revenue Service, 1111 Constitution Ave NW, Washington, DC 20224
Keep in mind that even if you file for an extension, you'll still need to pay any taxes owed by the original deadline (April 15th) to avoid penalties and interest.
It's also important to note that if you owe taxes, you can still file for an extension, but you'll need to make a payment by the original deadline to avoid penalties and interest.
If you're unsure about the deadline or have questions about filing for an extension, you can contact the IRS or consult with a tax professional.
