Key Tax Deadline Rules
Weekend/Holiday Rule
If a deadline falls on a weekend or federal holiday, it moves to the next business day. In 2027, January 31 and February 28 both fall on Sunday.
Extensions Don't Extend Payment
Filing an extension only extends filing—not payment. Pay by April 15 to avoid penalties.
Fiscal Year Filers
This calendar is for calendar-year filers. Fiscal year businesses have different deadlines.
