When were 2011 taxes due?

The IRS said Wednesday that taxpayers will have two extra days this year to file their 2011 returns. The April 17 deadline this year comes via two quirks of the calendar. The standard tax filing day of April 15 falls on a Sunday this year, so the date would be moved to April 16.

Is it too late to file taxes?

If you missed the April 18 tax deadline, you may cut back on penalties by filing your return promptly, according to the IRS. While it’s too late to request an extension, you can still reduce monthly late fees. Failure to file costs 5% of unpaid taxes per month and late payments incur 0.5%, both capped at 25%.
