The deadline to file your tax return is inching closer.  Typically, today is the day that Federal income taxes would be due, but because of a holiday in the District of Columbia, tax day will be on Monday, April 18th.

The IRS expects that more than 160 million individual tax returns will be filed this year. And for those taxpayers receiving refunds, the agency says payments will arrive with 21 days from when the return was filed electronically. As of March 25, nearly 81 million returns had been processed.

But some taxpayers’ returns may be complicated, and others who know they owe the IRS simply want to put off filing as long as possible.
