The IRS has announced a one-day extension for taxpayers with federal tax deadlines originally set for Thursday, January 9, 2025. The new deadline is Friday, January 10, 2025.
This extension comes in response to a Presidential Proclamation issued on December 29, 2024, declaring January 9 as a National Day of Mourning to honor James Earl Carter, Jr., the 39th President of the United States.
Here’s what the extension covers:
- Tax Returns: Any federal tax return that would have been due on January 9, 2025.
- Tax Payments: Federal tax payments, including income, payroll, or excise taxes, originally required by that date.
- Tax Deposits: Federal tax deposits, including those processed through the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS).
The extension provides taxpayers an extra day to ensure compliance with their federal tax obligations without facing penalties.
If you have returns or payments due on January 9, take advantage of this extended deadline to file or pay by January 10, 2025.
