Late Fee About to Start!!
Every year, I stop taking appointments and coupons one week before the deadline (typically April 8th) and start charging an extra "late filing premium" fee ($35 this year!!). Avoid this by dropping off your taxes before Monday, April 8th! Or upload them before then as well! This same amount is charged if you request an extension so you cannot avoid it by doing that either. I like to make sure that everyone gets filed on time!
