With only 2 days remaining, we’ve been working around the clock to ensure our customers have the experience they deserve when using FileLater.com. To date, our acceptance rate is 99.5% !
We’re on pace to set some sort of record - we noticed one of our competitors claims a 96% acceptance rate, so we are feeling really good about where we are.It’s important for people to realize if you file on April 15, we still have time to ensure your extension is accepted, or fix any errors and resubmit. The IRS E-file system stays open until April 20 for resubmission purposes, but any new filing must be done by midnight on April 15. So, you still have plenty of time to get that tax extension submitted and tell your friends about FileLater!

This is the last in our series of 5 Good Reasons to File a Tax Extension.
REASON #5:
Avoid the rush. Accountants and tax professionals are much busier in April than they are in October. Getting the proper amount of time with an accountant gets harder and harder the longer you wait leading up to April 15. Extending your income tax deadline to October 15 will give your accountant or tax pro that extra time to focus on your tax return, which may mean extra tax savings in your pocket.
We hope you’ve enjoyed our series. Drop us a comment and let us know what you think.

Today we talk about our fourth of five reasons in our daily series of 5 Good Reason to File a Tax Extension.
REASON #4:
Decrease you chances for being audited. Filing an income tax extension may reduce your chance of audit. IRS auditors have quotas they need to meet every year on the number of returns audited. Returns are sorted for auditors by filing date, and most auditors will have met their quotas before they get to extended returns.

Extra time to get organized. Getting paperwork together to complete your taxes isn’t easy. Organizing that shoebox of W2s, 1099s, mortgage interest statements, and receipts can take longer than you expect. Giving yourself the extra time needed will ensure you’re taxes are done right, and extending will give you extra time to track down any additional deductions so you’re getting the biggest tax return possible.
