Tax Deadline Approaching: Extension Information

The tax deadline for this tax season is April 15th

An extension will be filed for one of the following reasons if we have not received the below by March 31st by 11:59PM

  • We did not receive all documents.

  • We did not have all questions answered.

  • You did not confirm approval of the draft return (in order for us to send you a signature page).

  • You did not sign the signature pages (generally via DocuSign).

ARCC Tax Client: Automatic Extension Protection

  • We will be automatically filing an extension beginning April 1st

  • There is no additional fee to file an extension and we will continue to work tax returns in order that they were received. 

  • If an extension is filed, the deadline to file your tax return is October 15th

  • We will continue to send out reminders along the way.

State or IRS: Payments Owed & Payment Due Dates

  • If you owe any payment to the State or IRS, those payment due dates are still April 15th

  • ARCC is not liable for any late penalty fees/interest that accrues on payment amount owed. 

  • We do not know if you owe a payment until we prepare your return or you provide the necessary information to be able to calculate an estimate.

What is filing an extension?

  • Filing an extension does not affect an already filed return OR a future return filed.

  • It is simply there in order to avoid penalties for filing a return late.

  • There is no fee for filing an extension and no additional steps required (on your side) regarding extensions.

  • An extension has no negative effect on you, or your return.

What if I do not want ARCC to file an extension for me?

  • If you no longer need ARCC services, or do not want us to file an extension

  • Please notify us (via email or phone) by March 31st by 11:59pm

  • If you choose not have ARCC file an extension, ARCC is not liable for any penalties for late filing.

  • We hope that you would want to continue services with ARCC and if you have any comments, concerns, frustrations, to please email or call the office and we’d be happy to address those with you.

    We are a small team and work very hard to meet client needs and we are always striving to improve and be better. 😊
