"The Internal Revenue Service announced today, Taxpayers across the
nation will have until Tuesday, April 17, 2007, to file their 2006 returns

Taxpayers will have extra time to file and pay, because April 15 falls on

The April 17, 2007 deadline will apply to any of the following:

- Requests for an automatic six-month tax-filing extension, whether submitted electronically or on a paper Form 4868.

- Tax-year 2006 contributions to a Roth or traditional IRA.
- Individual estimated tax payments for the first quarter of 2007, whether made electronically or by check.
- Individual refund claims for tax year 2003, where the regular three-year statute of limitations is expiring.
