The IRS starts accepting e-filed tax returns on January 28.

Employers are required to issue income statements, such as W2s and 1099s to employees.

April 15, 2019 is the last day to file individual and state tax returns. You must file an extension for your 2018 tax return by this date too.

October 15, 2019 is the e-file deadline along with the due date of tax returns filed with an extension. After this date, federal and state returns are considered prior year returns and must be signed and then mailed.
