Need more time to file your 2010 tax return?

If you can’t complete your 2010 federal tax return by the April 18, 2011 deadline, you can buy yourself more time. (The normal April 15 deadline is pushed back this year due to a holiday weekend.)

Just file an extension to push the deadline back six months to October 15, 2011 and avoid IRS late-filing penalties.

The extension only pushes back the due date for the paperwork. If you owe money, you need to estimate the amount, then file your extension and make your payment before April 18, 2011.

Four Tax Tips about Tip Income

If you work in an occupation where tips are part of your total compensation, you need to be aware of several facts relating to your federal income taxes. Here are four things the IRS wants you to know about tip income:

  1. Tips are taxable. Tips are subject to federal income, Social Security and Medicare taxes. The value of non–cash tips, such as tickets, passes or other items of value, is also income and subject to tax.
  2. Include tips on your tax return. You must include in gross income all cash tips you receive directly from customers, tips added to credit cards, and your share of any tips you receive under a tip–splitting arrangement with fellow employees.
  3. Report tips to your employer. If you receive $20 or more in tips in any one month, you should report all of your tips to your employer. Your employer is required to withhold federal income, Social Security and Medicare taxes.
  4. Keep a running daily log of your tip income. You can use IRS Publication 1244, Employee’s Daily Record of Tips and Report to Employer, to record your tip income.

For more information see IRS Publication 531, Reporting Tip Income and Publication 1244 which are available at http://www.irs.gov or can be ordered by calling 800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676)

What is Extension Tax?

You may need more time to prepare your federal income tax return, and then you can file an Extension for time to file tax returns. Please be aware that an extension of time to file your return does not grant you any extension of time to pay your tax liability.

If you are not able to file your federal individual income tax return by the due date, you may be able to get an automatic 6-month extension of time to file. To do so, you must file Form 4868, Application for Automatic Extension of Time To File U.S. Individual Income Tax Return by the due date for filing your calendar year return (usually April 15) or fiscal year return.

Other Extension Tax forms that we support are:

Form 7004, Application for Automatic Extension of Time To File Certain Business Income Tax, Information, and Other Returns

Form 8868, Application for Extension of Time To File an Exempt Organization Return.

Why e-file an Extension?

The answer is easy; you want to avoid extra charges.

Your income tax return is due on April 18, 2011. Late charges may add as much as 50% to your tax bill.

If you don’t file your tax return by that date, then you will be subject to Late Filing Penalties and interest.

These penalties can cost you hundreds and often thousands of dollars. The normal penalty for late filing is 4.5% of tax owed for each month or part thereof; or up to 22% total over five months. The minimum for over 60 days late on your tax return, is the lesser of $100 dollars or 100 percent of tax owed.

By filing an extension, you will avoid Late Filing Penalties. Our fee is considerably less than those potential penalties you may incur. Not to mention the peace of mind that our service provides to you.

Therefore, you can easily determine and understand the benefits of filing your own tax extension through our service. Late Penalties are normally one half of the tax owed for each month, or part of a month, alternatively the 25% maximum penalty is applied.

If your taxes are unpaid 10 days after the IRS issues a notice of levy, the half of one percent increases to one percent. Individuals who file by the return due date, will be charged one quarter percent for any month in which an installment is in effect.

In general the interest is calculated on any unpaid balance from the due date of your tax return until the date of payment. This interest rate is the federal short-term rate plus three percent, which is determined every 3 months.
