File! Now! Hurry!

September 15, 2009

Today is the due date for extended calendar-year corporate returns (and 5-year NOL carrybacks for them), all of the extended pass-throughs, and to top it off, third quarter estimated tax payments. It's also the deadline for 2008 qualified plan contributions for all of these entitities.

Thanks to the sort of snafus and last minute information dumps that often accompany deadline days, posting has taken a back seat today, so I refer you to a few worthy posts:

The IRS Mailbox Rule, where Peter Pappas at The Tax Lawyer's Blog explains how to safely file those last-minute returns.

Conservative Mackinac Center On Public Policy Rips Michigan Tax Incentives, from David Brunori at Tax.com.

Prostitutes, Pet Food, Body Oil, and Other Bizarre Claimed Tax Deductions, from The Tax Policy Blog that Inexplicably Won't Link to Other Bloggers (in negligent and willful violaton of Rule 2).

Check out Welcome to Tax Twitter Tuesday, Kay Bell's new tweetfest at Don't Mess With Taxes.

Catch a Buzz with Robert D. Flach, The Wandering Tax Pro.

And last but not least, TIGTA Recommends That IRS Seek Mandatory e-Filing of Individual Tax Returns by Paid Preparers, but then mysteriously backtracks, over at the TaxProf Blog.

Back at it tomorrow.
