IRS Extends Federal Tax Deadlines & Offers Tax Relief Programs During COVID-19
With the stimulus packages totaling more than $2.2 trillion ($2,200,000,000,000), the IRS has the responsibility and marching orders to collect an unprecedented amount of taxes to help fund this initiative. The result will be a greater need for taxpayers to resolve unpaid taxes. With the help of our tax attorneys in Jacksonville, FL, and their knowledge of the tax code and tax relief programs, it will benefit you to act now if you have tax debt.
The following release includes more information about the Federal tax payment deadline extension and related tax relief programs, as well as more information about how the stimulus package will impact Americans with unpaid taxes.
IRS Extends Federal Income Tax Deadlines
To help Americans impacted by the COVID-19 event, the Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department announced they will extend the Federal Income tax filing deadline and they will offer special payment relief for individuals and Corporations. Currently, the relief only applies to income tax payments. State tax payments are not included.
Individuals: The 2019 tax filing and payment deadline have been extended to July 15, 2020 for Federal income tax payments (up to $1 million). Self-employed individuals, trusts, estates, and all other entities except for C-Corporations are included. If you don’t file or pay by July 15, 2020, normal IRS and State penalties and interest will be applied.
C-Corporations: The 2019 income tax filing and payment deadline have been extended to July 15, 2020 for C-Corporations. If you are required to make estimated 2020 tax payments, the payment relief includes your estimated payments also due April 15, 2020 (up to $10 million). These payments are now due July 15, 2020. If you don’t file or pay by July 15, normal IRS and State penalties and interest will be applied.
Tax Relief Programs Available During Extension
The IRS is offering new and unannounced tax relief programs to help reduce or eliminate your tax burden. This comes in addition to extending the filing and payment deadline for individuals and C-Corporations. The tax attorneys at J. David Tax Law in Jacksonville, FL have become privy to some leniency that the IRS will extend for a short period of time. These programs will expire on July 15, 2020 when the Federal income tax filings and payments are due.

The IRS collection attempts have continued since the event began. The stimulus packages are a historic initiative that will require the IRS to collect an even greater amount of tax debt, which they have been tasked to do. This is the time to settle your tax debt with the IRS and state tax agencies.
