Federal taxes payment deadline extended by 90 days

April 15 is still the filing deadline
Posted by Fred Steiner on March 19, 2020 - 2:13pm

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin announced that the Treasury Department has pushed back the April 15, 2020, tax payment deadline by 90 days.

This will give businesses and individuals additional time, potentially lessening cash-flow issues that many are facing. However, there is no extension of the April 15 filing deadline. 

The filing due date for 2019 individual and corporate income tax returns remains unchanged. Traditional extensions are still available for those needing more time to file a return.
