Tax Day is April 18 for 2021 1040s
Posted by taxguru on January 10, 2022
It’s been a few years since the official tax return deadline has been the classic April 15 we have all grown up with and associated with income taxes in this country. Due to holiday and weekend issues, we aren’t returning to the 15th this year either.
As explained in this IRS news release, the filing deadline is Monday, April 18 for taxpayers in every state except Maine and Massachusetts. Because of their Patriots’ Day holiday, they have an extra day, until April 19.
Not that IRS needs any more help complicating the tax system, but what would the deadlines look like if every State were to come up with their own special holidays around the time of April 15? It would be craaazy.
As we have learned over the past few years, the April 18 date is not cast in stone. It is subject to change if we have more disruptive events happen between now and then.
