The e-file deadline date was October 15th, 2013 for 2013 tax returns, but you can still prepare your return with RapidTax
You can’t e-file after the October 15 deadline, but you can prepare your 2013 taxes with RapidTax. Once completed, you’ll print, sign and mail your taxes to the IRS.
The first tax deadline for 2013 taxes was April 15, 2014. Those who requested an extension had until October 15, 2014, to file.
As of, October 15th the IRS has shut down the e-file system. Although you can no longer e-file, you can still prepare and file your 2013 taxes.
File your Late 2013 Taxes ASAP!
If you still need to file a 2013 tax return, you’ll want to do so as soon as possible. Why? If you have tax due, filing late means paying penalties. The longer you wait to file, the more you’ll end up handing over to the IRS. Late fees include;
- failure-to-file penalty: 5% of the additional taxes owed amount for every month (or fraction) your return is late, with a maximum penalty of 25%
- failure-to-pay penalty: 0.5% (1/2 of 1%) of the additional tax owed amount for every month (or fraction) your tax remains unpaid, up to a maximum of 25%
At the very least, file your late tax return. If you have trouble paying your tax due, the IRS is willing to work with you.
If you’re expecting a refund from your 2013 taxes, you won’t face any penalties but you’ll still want to file sooner rather than later. In fact, after April 15, 2017, you’ll no longer be able to claim your 2013 refund.
Don’t procrastinate! File today and put taxes out of your mind until the 2015 tax season!
wmr says my refund is supposed to be deposited on my card today 2/8/13 but nothing has been dd yet will i get it today or no?
yep i was right large amounts are under the microscope lol good luck
Knowing that some folks may have filed and hit the “send” button earlier in January but the IRS wasn’t beginning the processing until the 30th, I suspect that anyone who has received theirs already filed for a smaller refund and possibly went through a “Rapid Refund” program, sacrificing part of their return. To each their own.
I filed (e-file) on the 31st. “Where’s my refund” status 2/8/13 states:
“We have received your tax return and it is being processed.
You should get your refund within 21 days from the date we received your tax return.”
I’d really caution anyone who’s expecting something quicker to not get entrenched in to believing it’s just going to show up in a week or less. I’m sure it would be a nice surprise, but no one should let themselves depend on it happening.
Just my $0.02.
My refund is still being process but was accepted on 30 but say it’s being process on where’s my refund. Will I get paid on the 10 or do I have to wait for it’s accepted there also to get a schedule pay date
The Ira accepted my return on the 6 when will it be direct deposited?
Hi Stephanie,
Most people will get their refund within 21 days.
