Tax season is upon us! Here is some important information regarding filing your 2020 taxes.
The IRS announced that tax forms will be accepted starting Friday, February 12, 2021. This is also when online fillable forms will be available. The deadline is still April 15, unless an extension is requested and approved. EDIT: As of March 17, the IRS has extended the filing and payment deadline to May 17, 2021.
