Do you have a set time, or do you do it on the deadline date, or perhaps whenever you remember to?
I am trying to figure out when I should.
Also, I’m pretty sure if you claim over $1 billion in income this year I think you automatically pay no taxes. It may now be hard coded into the IRS software within the past week or so. Just add a bunch of zeroes and your safe. Nice to be a billionaire.
Did you just tell a state employee who works under a department of taxation to commit tax fraud.

Filing an extension this year. I think that puts my due date in October or something
Before January 20th of this year would have been a strategically smart move.
Ideally? Now.
In reality? 5 days before the extension deadline ends.
Depends on how many investment transactions I have and the dollar amount they represent. I didn’t make very many sell trades last year, so not having to wait for 1099’s meant I have already filed mine.
If I’m getting a refund I file in late Feb or early March. If I owe then I file close to Apr 15. Why pay sooner than you need to?
Somewhere around now I try to get like 80% of things entered – then I procrastinate on the last %20.
I’d like to get started as soon as possible, but a lot of places seem to like to wait until the last possible second to send me my information.
I think we’re finally at the point where I should have everything I need, so I guess I should get started.
As a W2 worker, as soon as I have all the tax documents I need. The longer you wait the more people get in line in front of you in processing, which can mean significant delays on your refund. If I were a business owner and owed taxes I’d wait as long as possible, so as to make the most use of the money I owe them.
I would do it soon before they gut IRS and have a government shutdown.
i did it like january 5th
I figure out if I need to pay or I get money back ASAP. If I expect money back, I file as quickly as possible. If I owe, stall.
Probably this weekend. I need to double check that I got all necessary documents. It’s cold outside, I have a cold, in a lul for sports and entertainment and hobbies, so now is the time for me to get taxes over and done with.
As soon as everything has reported (I don’t wait for it to come in the mail). We generally file as early as allowed. We’ve already gotten our Federal refund back. Now state, this one takes AGES, probably won’t see it till April sadly.
April 15 this year? Starting April 14.
