Yes, today is Tax Day.
Hopefully, you’re feeling that sweet sense of relief because everything is filed and done. But if you’re sitting there thinking, “I’m not quite where I wanted to be…” — take a breath. You’re not alone, and you still have options.
Here’s what you need to know:
• You have until 11:59 PM tonight to file your federal and state taxes
• You can request a 6-month extension (Form 4868)
• To qualify for that extension, you’ll need to pay at least 80% of what you owe today
And one more tip from me: don’t tuck those tax documents away just yet. If you’re planning to apply for a loan—whether it’s a mortgage, business loan, or even education financing—you’re going to need them. Keeping everything handy will save you time (and a headache) later.
You’ve got this. And if you need help, Total Tax Care is here.
