Lessons Learned: six money matters I learned during the pandemic
Deadline Extended! You now have an extra month (& couple of days) to file your Federal Tax Return. In an effort to take some pressure off Americans dealing with the pandemic, the IRS extended the deadline for Federal (not State) tax returns to May 17th, 2021.
In related news, if you received unemployment benefits in 2020, the first $10,200 of unemployment income is now tax free thanks to The American Rescue Plan passed by President Biden earlier this month. If you already filed your 2020 taxes, the IRS recommends that you wait to amend your 2020 Tax Return until they issue further guidance.
