Tomorrow, July 15, is the deadline for filing federal taxes.  The usual deadline, April 15, was pushed back because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The filing date for Hawaii State taxes was pushed back to July 20, next Monday.

The IRS reminds taxpayers that if they cannot file their 2019 taxes by July 15, they may ask for an extension until October 15–it’s automatic, but you have to ask.  But those who owe money must pay it by tomorrow whether or not they file their taxes by this date.  For detail, click here.

The IRS also announced that it is way behind in processing paper returned filed already, and urges any future returns to be filed electronically.  If you are filing the paper form, it must be postmarked by tomorrow.
