Tuesday marks final day for taxes, penalties possible for late filing
Tuesday was the last day to file your taxes and if you waited until the last minute there can be expected consequences. Jason Williams of Liberty Tax said there could be penalties if you file later than Tuesday. He also said refund turnaround times vary depending on how you filed. Deconstructing to reconstruct, work continues at former EMI site The final day to file your taxes has arrived and staff of tax offices has encouraged those filing to have all the needed documents to get those taxes sent off successfully. 'Should have all your W2s, if you had unemployment you have a statement from that, if you have any interest income from the banks, dividends or possible stocks,' said Jason Williams, the office manager at Liberty Tax. Williams said for those looking for an extension, an additional six months to file will be allowed but if a tax is still owed it is still expected to be paid by the deadline. And if you're late filing there will be consequences. 'If you're late filing you will be charged a penalty and then if you owe there's going to be interest tacked on to it and if you file late with owing there's a penalty on the filing,' he explained. Protestors take to Perry Square over Trump tax policies One person filing on the last day said he had a delayed schedule this year but he always tries to get ahead of the fees. 'Just busy at work, busy with the kids. Completed the taxes over the weekend had to print them out had a little weird thing with Pennsylvania that was the only one that I had to mail in. So yeah, just glad to get it postmarked today,' said Dan Cullen who was filing taxes. 'Wouldn't want to postmark it after the 15th never had to do that before so yeah, don't want to see what happens if that does happen,' he continued. Depending on how you file, Williams said there are varying return times for a refund. Close Thanks for signing up! Watch for us in your inbox.

Reminders from local experts ahead of tax deadline
CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) – The tax deadline is fast approaching, now just over three weeks away on April 15. Tax season is in full swing. Hundreds of millions of tax returns are filed each year, and if you haven't filed already, tax experts have a few reminders. Granby farm sues Trump administration for freezing federal funding 'You want to get your information from last year to see if anything might be different,' said Ray Maagero of Liberty Tax. 'If there is a life changing event that has occurred in the past year, you want to be sure you consider that for your tax return. Whether you have a new child, whether you get married or divorced, or you made some new investments or opened a business.' Maagero said it is not unusual for them to find additional money for taxpayers that they may have missed in year's past. 'There's always changes that we are concerned about that taxpayers might be missing and we certainly relish the opportunity to help people find those additional credits and deductions,' Maagero said. Besides using a trusted tax professional to file your taxes, there are a few programs through the IRS where qualifying taxpayers can file for free. There is the IRS Free File Program through their website that includes software that will look for deductibles, credits and exemptions. Direct File is another free program for qualifying taxpayers through the IRS in 25 participating states, Massachusetts and Connecticut included. Maagero said there is also an option for filing today, but paying later. 'There's no reason not to file today because you can queue your payment up so it's taken out of your account on the 15th of April, so our recommendation is get your tax return filed, you'll beat the rush,' Maagero said. Taxpayers can either file through the mail or electronically, but tax professionals say they prefer e-file, as it is more secure. Most tax refunds are received in 21 days if filed online. If filed through the mail, the wait time is generally four weeks.
