It's Tax Time! 
 IRS
If you're a last-minute filer:  This year's tax filing deadline has been extended to April 18 due to the Emancipation Day holiday celebrated by Washington D.C., great news for those of you who like to wait. 
 
If you're an early filer:  You can begin filing now! Itemized returns using form 1040 Schedule A and a few other taxpayer categories, were delayed due to tax-law changes, but the IRS has begun accepting these returns as of February 14.
  
Regardless of when you're filing: Consider the potential benefits of a Traditional IRA or Roth IRA.  We have plenty of information on our web site to help you decide which one may be right for you.
  
If you'd like some help. Action Tax tax preparation is available at our Ybor Heights location Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and at Town N' Country on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.  Prefer an appointment at a different location or time? Call 813.361.5440 or 813.282.9068.
