Today is the federal tax filing deadline for most people. The deadline is usually on April 15, but the 15th fell on a Saturday this year, and Monday was a holiday in Washington, D.C. It’s Emancipation Day, the day that commemorates the official end of slavery in Washington, D.C. If you don’t file your income tax return today, and you owe the government money, you will face fines and penalties in addition to the taxes you owe. You can file for an extension but filing for an extension does not mean you do not have to pay any taxes you owe. It simply means you have more time to file the return. If you owe taxes, you are required to pay the bill today. The IRS uses a service known as Free File if your adjusted gross income is $73,000 or lower.
