For Federal income tax for most people they are due on or before April 15, of the year following the reporting year. Some State returns have different deadlines. However, a 6 month extension of time to file is easily available. (But note that is an extension fo filing the complete return, NOT paying. Payments are due, through quarterly estimates or payroll withholding throughout the reporting year. An underpayment during this time can be made right with the filing of the return, or extension, on April 15. Failing to make adequate payments can also void the extension and subject someone to penalties and interest). An un-filed return is ALWAYS open to audit and assesment by the Government, as no statute of limitations even starts to run until one is filed. It may be filed at ANYTIME after the due date. An incorrect return may be corected by filing an amended return, anytime after the original filing...although the time to obtain a refund is limited.
