Tax Extensions: Need More Time To File Your Taxes?

Tax season sometimes just sneaks up on you and suddenly you are in need of more time to file. So what do you do?  File a Tax Extension.

What is a Tax Extension?
A tax extension extends the amount of time to prepare and file your tax return with the IRS. Please note: This does NOT extend the amount of time to pay your taxes.
