Changes In Due Dates of Tax Returns For The 2016 Tax Year
Congress recently passed a bill that changes the due dates of certain tax returns effective with the 2016 tax year (returns due in 2017).
The individual tax return deadline remains unchanged at April 15, but returns for corporations, partnerships, trusts, estates, benefit plans and FinCEN reporting all experience some changes. The new due dates will make the filing deadlines more consistent and will allow longer extensions in some cases. A table of the changes can be read here and the language of the bill can be read here.
