The answer is simple: file it as soon as possible! The longer you wait to file your return the more you are going to owe the IRS. They assess a penalty, usually around 5%, of the amount due for each month that your return is late. The maximum penalty is 25% and if your return is more than 60 days late there is a minimum $100 penalty.

Many of the Roni Deutch Tax Center™ locations are open year round providing tax preparation services along with other financial and business services. If you do not think you can handle filing on your own then call and make an appointment with one of our offices before your penalties get too high.
