*Note: The federal tax deadline in 2023 falls on April 18, rather than April 15, which is a Saturday. Normally, when the tax deadline is on weekend or holiday, the deadline is moved to the next business day. However, Monday, April 17, is Emancipation Day, a holiday recognized in the District of Columbia, where the Internal Revenue Service is headquartered. The federal extension deadline for 2023 is October 16, since October 15 falls on a Sunday. Most states usually follow the same calendar for state income tax returns.
