A tax tip for those living in CT

[bignick]

I use to live in CT, and send my taxes into Mass. Well, April 15th is Patriots Day in Mass. Your taxes arn't really due until April 16th.

edit: I need to learn how to type more better.

This is as good a place as any, but what exactly are the details with applying for filing them late? I know someone who hasn't paid their taxes for seven years, because they do that. Is that even legal?

you can file an extension. H&R Block has a link on their website to do it.

I think I am going to do that right now

[bignick]

Im sure its illegal to not pay. I only know that you have an extra day to file when you live in CT because you send them to Mass. If I was your friend I would make sure nothing I owned(house/car) was in my name! The IRS will eventually catch up. If anyone knows what the statute of limitations is on taxes, I would love to know! 5 years maybe? not sure.

Casey, BRING BACK RAZOR RAMONE!!!!!!!!!

I think I am just going to H&R Block tomorrow morning. I need to do it and I am not paying for an extension

You should have gotten an end of the year for saying how much you paid in interest. You get a credit on the interest. HR online is so easy to do, you just click the check box next to student loan interest and they ask you all the questions about the form. Really easy. You also get a credit for the cost of school too!

Well, it's not one of my friends, its my aunt's friend, and it seems she keeps filing for extensions upon extentions and extensions for those extensions. I think she found a loophole or something, or maybe she'll be getting a visit from the irs eventually.

I would think so! I hope not. I have heard you can really settle for pennies on the dollar with them.......

[CaseyRyback]

I will call my mom in the morning and make sure I have everything because I recieved 10000 from my Grandmother for college and need to know about that along with what my grandma put in the stock market for me and how that affects things.

[CaseyRyback]

I will probably file online though if it is packed tomorrow.

I think the only federal form I have to fill out is a 1099 since I did not work last year so I may just do it online.

Was state included in that BigNicK?

An extension does not mean you get to put off paying your taxes. It only extends the deadline for submitting the paperwork. You still must pay any tax owed by the normal due date. If you don't, you are subject to penalties.

As long as your Grandmother hasn't given you a ton of money over your lifetime and reached a certain cap, she can give you up to $11,000 a year tax free. Probably too late to help, but I thought I would try to help.

If you wait till the last minute anyway, you kinda ought to just get them done. An extra day for slacking isnt a great temptation.

Well I hope your Aunt enjoys visiting her in prison. If this is true and she owes the government money they will come for it, plus interest! So, unless she has a huge amount of money available to pay those back taxes she will be bankrupt and go to prison.

Patriots day is at best a state holiday and has no effect on the federal deadline for filing your federal taxes.

there are a million of these articles on google. I use to live in CT. I have seen this on the news, in the paper, and hear it from tax professionals.

[PsyClerk]

Uh...BigNick, the article you link to is dated 2002. And contains the following line:

"The filing deadline won´t coincide with Patriots´ Day again until 2006."

Are you SURE about this? (not being sarcastic)

Good Call. I'm out. Until 2006 then....

Its no problem, you have always posted good information on this site. I think it was nothing more than an oversight.

You see as I practice corporate tax law I have an unfair advantage.

For the fart in time I have been on this site I think most people try to help.

But this is something I wasn't going to let slide for fear it might screw someone inadvertantly.
