The New York State Department of Taxation
and Finance today reminded taxpayers that they can take three extra days
to file both their federal and state income tax returns this year. The
deadline is extended to Monday, April 18, 2016, because Washington, D.C. will celebrate Emancipation Day on Friday, April 15.
“The extended deadline provides a few
extra days for the millions of New Yorkers who file their taxes late in
the season,” said New York State Commissioner of Taxation and Finance
Jerry Boone. “However, just because there’s extra time to file doesn’t
mean you need to wait until April 18. You can complete your return now with the user-friendly software on our website, tax.ny.gov.
”The Tax Department’s online "e-file for
free" initiative enables taxpayers with federal adjusted gross incomes
under $62,000 to save the expense of hiring a preparer by filing both
their federal and state income tax returns at no cost.
