The article summary contradicts the article:
"Ordinarily, individual income taxpayers must submit their 2019 tax returns and pay amounts owed by April 15."
In fact, it says that if you are owed a refund you shouldn't delay filing. The whole point is that you don't have to file or pay for another 90 days.
EDIT: No it doesn't. Missed the "Ordinarily"
- carimura 7y agoThis is not a delay in the filing date (yet, although many predict it's coming). This is a 90-day interest-free grace period for paying owed taxes.
- chrisweekly 7y agoWhere's the contradiction? Ordinarily: have to file and pay by April 15 News: ok to take up to 90 extra days to file and pay
- teilo 7y agoThank you. Amazing how I can read that multiple times, and still miss the first word. My brain is frazzled from dealing with an endless stream of emergency VPN, call forwarding, remote access, "how do I use Google Meet" requests.
- toomuchtodo 7y agoTake some time for self care if you can.
- Johnny555 7y agoBut the news never said "take up to 90 extra days to file", at least I haven't been able to find a definitive statement that the filing deadline is extended. A lot of people are assuming it, but Mnuchin only mentioned the payment deadline in his statement.
