Extension Requests
If you would like Pacific Northwest tax service can prepare and submit an extension request for you, complete and submit the extension request form that applies to your situation on Extensions page of our website.
IMPORTANT:
- We process extensions ONLY for clients who properly and timely complete the appropriate Extension Request Form. We do not accept nor process extension requests made by phone, oral request, email or another method.
- An extension of time to file is NOT an extension of time to pay taxes owed. Taxes owed for the final federal, state and local returns must all be paid by the original due date of the return.
Tax Return Due Dates & Extension Deadlines
In most years, the filing deadline to submit Individual 1040 returns is April 15. In years where April 15 falls on a weekend, the filing deadline is pushed to April 17 or 18. The filing deadline will never fall on April 16, because April 16, Emancipation Day, is honored as a federal holiday in Washington, D.C.
Business, nonprofit organizations estates and trusts have different filing deadlines as shown next.
