On March 20, the Treasury Department postponed the 2019 tax filing due date from April 15th to July 15th. The deadline for IRA contributions has been moved until July 15, as well. This provides individuals and businesses an additional three months to file their income tax returns and pay their taxes for the 2019 tax year without incurring penalties or interest.
You can review the IRS’ filing and deadline Q&A for answers to some frequently asked questions.
Note: Be sure to check with your state to determine if it will follow the July15 federal tax filing deadline.

If you have too much withheld, it’s like making an interest-free loan to Uncle Sam. If you have too little withheld, it may mean you’ll have to pay more and, possibly, a penalty when you file your return.
An IRS Tax Withholding Estimator is available to help you project your tax bill and adjust your withholding, if needed. And don’t forget about your state income tax payments. Many states require quarterly tax payments if your withholding will not cover your tax bill.
