Special Filing Considerations

Fiscal Year Filers

If your business operates on a fiscal year rather than a calendar year, your filing deadlines will be based on your fiscal year end. Generally, returns are due on the 15th day of the 3rd month (partnerships) or 4th month (corporations) after the close of your fiscal year.

State Filing Deadlines

State filing deadlines often coincide with federal deadlines, but may vary by state. Some states automatically grant the same extension as federal, while others require a separate state extension request. Check with each specific state for exact requirements.

Tax Filing Fenalties

Avoid Costly Penalties

The IRS and state tax authorities impose significant penalties for failing to file or pay taxes on time. Stay compliant to avoid these unnecessary costs.
