This is The Best Way to Beat The April 17 Tax Deadline

The countdown to the big April 17th tax deadline has officially begun. In just a few days your personal income tax extension is due to the IRS.

If you just realized that you have a tax deadline to meet by next week, we are standing by and ready to join forces with you to beat the April 17 Tax Day deadline by providing income tax extension Form 4868.

Here is some pertinent information that you will help you on the race to be a winner on the official Tax Day deadline-day, April 17th.

Beat the April 17 Tax Day Deadline With Income Tax Extension Form 4868

Although we cannot help you file IRS Form 1040, we can assist you with filing Federal Income Tax Extension Form 4868 to get an automatic 6-month personal tax extension. This means that your income tax return will not be due until October 2018.

Information Needed To File a Personal Tax Extension

First things first, you must know that Extension Form 4868 must be filed by midnight on April 17th. If you file after this,

the IRS will not accept your tax extension application. To ensure that you’re filing with an IRS-authorized e-filer, like TaxBandits, look for this symbol.

The following information is needed to file for an income tax return extension:

Your name and address
- Spouse’s name if filing jointly
Your Social Security Number (SSN)
- Spouse’s SSN if filing jointly
Estimated total tax liability for the 2017 tax year
Total 2017 tax withholdings and tax payments
Estimated tax payment owed to the IRS (if any)

Once accepted by the IRS, you will receive an additional 6 months to file your tax return, meaning that your new due date is October 15th, 2018. Click here to sign-up for a free account and file an income tax extension before the end of the Tax Day Deadline on Tuesday, April 17th.
