*Missed the Tax Day deadline? Here?s what taxpayers should do*
Taxpayers who missed the recent April filing and payment deadline should know their obligations and the possible consequences if they don?t file or have an overdue tax bill.
*Taxpayers who owe tax
*Tax owed and not paid by April 18, 2023, is subject to?penalties [ [link removed] ] and interest [ [link removed] ]. Anyone who didn't file and owes tax should file a return as soon as they can and pay as much as they can to reduce penalties and interest. Electronic filing options, including?IRS Free File [ [link removed] ], are still available on IRS.gov through October 16, 2023, to prepare and file returns electronically.
Filing soon is very important because the late-filing and late-payment penalties and?interest?on unpaid taxes add up quickly. Some taxpayers filing after the deadline may qualify for penalty relief. For those charged a penalty, they may contact the IRS by calling the number on their notice and explain why they couldn't file and pay on time.
Taxpayers who have a history of filing and paying on time often qualify for administrative penalty relief. A taxpayer usually qualifies if they have filed and paid promptly for the past three years and meet other requirements. For details, taxpayers should visit the?first-time penalty abatement page [ [link removed] ]?on IRS.gov.
If taxpayers find that they owe taxes, they can review their?available?payment options [ [link removed] ]. The IRS has options for taxpayers who?can't pay taxes [ [link removed] ]?they owe. Information on reducing the amount of interest owed is on?the interest abatement [ [link removed] ] page of IRS.gov.
*Military personnel can still use MilTax
*The military community can also file their taxes using?MilTax [ [link removed] ], a free tax resource offered through the Department of Defense.?Eligible taxpayers [ [link removed] ]?can use MilTax to electronically file a federal tax return and up to three state returns for free.
*Some taxpayers have extra time
*Some taxpayers may have extra time to file their tax returns and pay any taxes due. This includes some?disaster victims [ [link removed] ],?taxpayers living overseas [ [link removed] ], certain?military service members [ [link removed] ]?and?eligible support personnel in combat zones [ [link removed] ].
*Taxpayers who weren?t required to file
*Some people may choose not to file a tax return because they didn't earn enough money to be?required to file [ [link removed] ]. Generally, they won't receive a penalty if they are owed a refund, but they risk?missing out on their refund [ [link removed] ].
