Officially: July 15 is the new April 15 this year and NOTHING is due on April 15, 2020. If you owe money you have until July 15, 2020 to pay without additional penalty or interest.

Our team is working safely, but moving forward because many people are depending on us. We are prioritizing existing clients and tax payers who are getting a refund; people will need their money during these trying times. We are not scheduling face to face meetings until April 6 at the earliest. In the meantime, we will keep up with the news and make our best determination about safely versus economic calamity.

We are open for business and will move forward. We are taking everything seriously, but need to do what we can to keep commerce going during these troubling times. God Bless.

The U.S. will extend the individual tax filing deadline until July 15 from April 15, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said.

More detail on yesterday's announcement.

The Treasury Department issued guidance saying that taxpayers can delay paying some federal income taxes for 90 days but still must submit their forms to the Internal Revenue Service -- or officially request an extension -- by April 15.

Our office is remaining open, but we want you to know that we are taking the COVID 19 situation seriously. We will facilitate social distancing by working with clients remotely online, on the telephone and through the mail. I have staggered my appointments to be an hour apart and we are maintaining our personal environments as much as possible.

We are offering additional sick days to our employees if anyone needs it and encouraging everyone to stay home as needed.

Moving forward we will monitor the situation and make changes based on facts. Take time to personally assess your readiness for the situation and the ancillary complications that are going to happen as a matter of fact. Stay safe, love your people, and let's be good to each other. God bless.
