CSTFor 2025, the IRS has ruled that, as every year, 2024 tax returns must be filed by April 15 as the deadline, although those who obtain a valid tax extension will have until October 15, 2025 to get their returns in order.However, if you miss the deadline and owe taxes, the longer you wait to file and pay, the greater the penalties and interest may be. If you miss the deadline and are due a refund, you may not face a penalty, but be sure to file if required by law.IRS Tax Refund Calendar 2023: When will state and federal tax refunds be sent out?There are some people who earn less than a certain income, which means they can avoid the paperwork, but it is important to know that income is not the only factor at play.For example, people who received distributions from things like a health savings account may have an obligation to file a return, even if their income was below the filing thresholdSome people who earn less than the minimum income requirements to file a return may be eligible for tax credits or other benefits that could result in a refund. Not filing means potentially missing out on that money.You will likely need to file a tax return in 2025 if your gross income in 2024 was at least $14,600 for the year as a single filer, $29,200 if married and filing jointly or $21,900 if head of household.If you were 65 or older at the end of 2024, those minimum income limits are higher.If someone else can claim you as a dependent, the rules change.
