Tax Deadline for 2020
​

​The US income tax deadline was extended to July 15th, 2020, by Treasury Secretary Mnuchin on Twitter. Which means you do not have filing, payments, or interest until then! 

Filing an Extension for 2020

If you think you need to file an extension for 2020 US expat taxes it must be submitted on or before July 15, 2020. ​

​COVID-19 Stimulus Check

Picture
​The Department of the Treasury and the IRS say you must have filed a 2018 or 2019 tax return to be first on their list to receive a COVID-19 stimulus check. If you have not filed taxes in a few years this is a good time to complete a streamlined procedure. You must qualify as a $1,200 per US individual tax filer and $500 per qualifying US Child stimulus checks. 

My FBAR (FinCEN Form114) for 2020
​

​Form 114 for the FBAR is automatically extended to October 15, 2020. Therefore, requesting an extension for this form is not necessary.
