The IRS clarified in formal guidance issued earlier today that this deadline extension DOES NOT apply to other tax returns that are due on April 15th, such as C corporations, trusts, and gifts, as well as first quarter 2021 estimated tax payments. Those returns and payment remain due by April 15, 2021.
Most individual states that impose income tax have followed suit with the federal tax filing extension. Arizona is not one of them; however, a measure to conform to the extended federal tax filing deadline has been introduced and passed by a legislative committee. We will keep you updated on this legislation, but for now, plan to file your Arizona state income tax by April 15th.
At Price Kong, it is business as usual. We are working to meet the original April 15th deadline. To that end, we intend to keep and maintain our internal individual and group performance goals in place as if April 15th were still the original deadline so that work can be completed without modifying firm or client expectations.
We urge you to speak to your Price Kong advisor and provide tax information sooner rather than later. Each client’s situation will be evaluated and the appropriate course of action provided to ensure a smooth tax filing process.
As always, we are here to assist. Please contact us with questions at 602.776.6300.
