Brief Description: If you are having trouble getting through your taxes on time, you may want to file for an extension. This article describes how and why you may want to do this.
If you are having trouble getting your tax return papers filed on time, you may want to file for an extension through the IRS. This can help you to finish the process, without running into harsh deadlines.
There is a lot of stress which comes from being in tax trouble. Along with the obvious problems with owing so much money, there is also the issue of collection agents constantly monitoring activity and demanding more.
These organizations exist with a single purpose, so they do not often show compassion for those who have fallen on hard times. As such, there is a lot of stress which comes from organizations which exist only to collect.
There is another kind of extension as well. If you cannot complete your returns by the first extension deadline, you can "apply" for an additional two months.
One of the elements that collection agencies often fail to take into account is the human side of the equation. Often times, these situations come about because people made a mistake, or got into trouble because of circumstance.
If the reason is merely for your convenience, your request can be denied. If your application is denied, your return will be due immediately, or within a ten day grace period.
If you did not timely file a first extension, a second extension will only be approved in cases of undue hardship. This could mean going through a medical trauma, losing your job or home, or another serious circumstance.
These individuals are highly effective at getting results, due to the way the legal system is set up to help them.
Just as the legal system is configured in a way to punish those who break the law, it is also set up in a way to protect the rights and lives of the individuals.
You may not want to ask for extra time because you are afraid that it will flag you as a late filer, or make you more liable to be audited. Filing an extension in and of itself is not going to raise any "red flags" or cause problems as long as your extension is done quickly, and paid on time.
That being said, the legal system has been specifically created with such scenarios in mind. It is crucial that everyone be able to have a real chance as they face legal battles.
Yet another reason that some individuals do not want to extend, is because they are in the process of buying a new home and their lender is requesting a copy of their tax return. Many lenders will accept a copy of an extension, along with copies of documents substantiating income, and copies of the prior year's tax returns.
If you choose to do so, you will need your general taxpayer information, which includes your name, the name of your spouse if married and filing a joint extension, your social security number, your spouse's social security number, and your complete address. To avoid potential delays in the processing of your extension, special attention is required if your name has changed due to marriage, divorce, or for others reasons.
