Today is not Tax Day!

Quick FYI: Just in case you were sweating bullets over getting your tax return done today (since it is April 15th), realize you have a bit more time. This year you have until Monday, April, 18th.

According to the IRS website, "Friday, April 15, 2016, is Emancipation Day, so tax year 2015 returns are due Monday, April 18, 2016. Taxpayers in Maine and Massachusetts observe Patriots' Day on April 18, 2016, so they will have until Tuesday, April 19, 2016, to file" - source: https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc301.html
