heads up....tax deadline is april 18 for 2016...

so for all you sorry people who have not done their taxes....you got 3 more day.....deadline is not this friday but this monday...

When the date falls on a weekend, it is often moved to the following Monday. However, for the 2016 deadline, the Internal Revenue Service has given taxpayers until April 18 to pay their taxes, but it is not because the due date falls on a weekend – April 15 is a Friday.

Instead, the IRS is observing a holiday that is usually only observed in Washington, DC. Emancipation Day marks the day that the Compensated Emancipation Act was signed by President Abraham Lincoln and is observed on April 16.

Emancipation Day is a legal holiday in DC, and public employees are given the day off work. However, because April 16, 2016, falls on a Saturday, it is celebrated on the closest weekday, which is Friday April 15.

This means that public employees such as those that work for the IRS will have April 15 off of work, and so it pushes the tax deadline to April 18, a Monday, which is the next business day.

The real reason why tax day was moved to April 18

This is the first year in awhile that I have not got them in. I have spent the last two weeks trying to set aside some type of time to find my stuff and get it done. So, this is pretty awesome.
