It’s time to do your taxes — no more delays.

As the coronavirus pandemic took hold this

spring, the federal government postponed the

traditional April 15 filing deadline until July 15.

The move provided some economic and logistical

relief for taxpayers dealing with the disruptions

and uncertainty brought on by lockdowns, school

closures and shuttered businesses. But now that

new deadline is rapidly approaching.

Taxpayers must file or seek an extension by

the new deadline or face a penalty. The IRS

is expecting about 150 million returns from

individuals and as of last count, it had received

almost 139 million.
