About US Tax Day (Form 1040 deadline, typical date)
The typical deadline for filing US federal individual income tax returns (Form 1040) is April 15, though the actual deadline shifts to the next business day when April 15 falls on a weekend or a recognized holiday (including the Washington, D.C.-observed Emancipation Day, which has pushed the deadline later in some recent years).
This page computes the adjusted real deadline for the current year in addition to the fixed April 15 reference date shown above.
The deadline briefly shifted even further in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19-related federal extensions, a reminder that while the April 15 rule is the normal default, it isn't literally immovable in genuinely exceptional years.
Massachusetts and Maine residents historically received an extra day's extension beyond the national deadline due to Patriots' Day, a state holiday that can coincide with the federal filing deadline in some years.
