IRS shortens deadline extension
Published July 3, 2008 by CSBJ Staff
The extended due date for business and individual tax forms usually falls on the same date, but the Internal Revenue Service has moved the extended due date for partnership, estate and trust tax returns from Oct. 15 to Sept. 15 to avoid the overlap.
The change is effective for extension requests for tax returns due on or after Jan. 1, 2009. It applies to business entities that have a tax year ending on or after Sept. 30, 2008, that file the following returns and forms: Form 1065, U.S. Return of Partnership Income; Form 1041, U.S. Income Tax Return for Estates and Trusts; and Form 8804, Annual Return for Partnership Withholding Tax.
