Tax Filing Deadline Extended Amid COVID-19 Outbreak
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin announced today that taxpayers (individuals and businesses) would now have an additional 90 days, until July 15, 2020, to file their 2019 tax returns. This latest announcement sets both the filing and payment deadlines to the same day, removing any potential Tax Day confusion.
The Treasury still encourages taxpayers who may have tax refunds to file now in order to get their refund money.
Federal Software Updates
We are working on updating the software to reflect the new filing and payment due dates in client letters, filing instructions, and ACH payments.
Please note: The ACH payment change must be implemented in coordination with the IRS's changes to business rules and e-file reject conditions.
Additional software updates will be forthcoming, such as changes for estimated payment deadlines and extensions. We are tracking all necessary changes and will release them as soon as possible. There are still a number of open issues the IRS is working through.
State Updates
We are closely tracking the states' decisions on filing and payment deadlines as well. You can stay informed by regularly checking our State Response to Covid-19 page.
We will be updating all state software programs as necessary and will release updates as soon as possible.
