When filing quarterly taxes, it is essential to keep a careful schedule! The important dates are:
- For income received January 1st through March 31st, your estimate is due April 15th.
- For income received April 1st through May 31st, your estimate is due June 15th.
- For income received June 1st through August 31st, your estimate is due September 15th.
- For income received September 1st through December 31st, you estimate is due January 15th.
When dealing with end of the year tax filing, it is important to separate fact from fiction!
We have compiled a list of major misconceptions to clear the air!- For quarterly taxes, you can just pay one lump sum at the end of the year. False! You can and should pay the amount due in payments during the year.
- If you don’t make much, you don’t need to file. False! If you made or received payments, you likely need to file an information return with the IRS.
- If you miss a payment, you should just wait until the next payment. False! You should make the payment as soon as you can to reduce penalties.
