MSN has reported that the Treasury secretary just announced via Twitter that the tax filing deadline has moved to July 15.
“We are moving Tax Day from April 15 to July 15,” Secretary Steven Mnuchin tweeted. “All taxpayers and businesses will have this additional time to file and make payments without interest or penalties.” He said he was acting at President Donald Trump’s direction.
The White House had announced previously that it would defer tax payments for 90 days but that Americans would still need to file by April 15.
Now the deadline will be extended into the summer.
Mnuchin said Americans with refunds should still file now.
“I encourage all taxpayers who may have tax refunds to file now to get your money,” he wrote.
