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!
If I file my 2010 Tax Return on 2013 via mail and will I get my refund or is it too late now to receive my refund?
Hi Spenser,
No, it’s not too late to get your 2010 refund. Paper filing takes long than e-filing. You should get your refund in 4-8 weeks, maybe less. You can actually prepare your 2010 return right here on RapidTax – http://www.rapidtax.com/Pricing/?Prior
I file on jan 28 did not get accpted on feb 3 my 21 one days is almost up and I still have no dd date yet.
Does anyone have an answer to my question submitted on Feb 14: “The IRS says I can efile my 2011 return through Modernized Efile (new capability for IRS), but that the efile vendor’s software must support prior year efiling. Does anyone know of a company that allows efiling for a prior year??”
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
Hi Kelly,
I am not aware of any tax preparer that will allow you to e-file a prior year return. Most, like RapidTax, still require that you paper file.
I filed on 30th and its the 15th checked the were,s my refund it been received but still says not processed yet got 10,000,00+ will i get it by next week or soon please some one help thanks.
I filed on 30th and it is Feb 15 still not processed how much longer to get my refund what date some one help please.
Hi Kevin,
The IRS says most taxpayers will get their refund in under 21 days, so you are still within that range. I would not start to worry until after the 21st. You should be able to check the status of your return (and the estimated date of your refund) on the Where’s My Refund tool on the IRS website.
