"Taxpayers who plan to put their returns in the mail should do so at least three to five days before the April 15 deadline to ensure timely processing."
"Filing for an extension can give you until Oct. 15 to file your returns, but it doesn't allow you to pay any taxes you owe later than April 15."
"USPS is facing a 'critical juncture' due to a 'drastic reduction in the use of mail,' as well as overregulation, impacting its operations."
Tax returns must be postmarked by April 15 if mailed to the IRS. Recent USPS changes may delay mail delivery. To ensure timely postmarking, taxpayers should bring returns to a retail location for a manual postmark. Filing for an extension is possible, allowing until October 15 to file, but taxes owed must still be paid by April 15. USPS faces challenges, including reduced mail usage and potential price increases for stamps.
