Posted by R. Pile on February 17, 2009, 4:52 pm Please log in for more thread options I am completing a 2007 tax return for someone in the Army who returned from Iraq a few months ago. There'll be a refund, so there's no worry about interest or penalties. But, can a 2007 tax return still be electronically filed? It was my understanding the deadline for efiling was October 15, 2008, the end of the extension period. Is that correct? -- << ------------------------------------------------------- >> << The foregoing was not intended or written to be used, >> << nor can it used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties >> << that may be imposed upon the taxpayer. >> << >> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting posts >> << to this newsgroup as well as our anti-spamming policy >> << are at www.asktax.org. >> << Copyright (2007) - All rights reserved. >> << ------------------------------------------------------- >> Posted by Harlan Lunsford on February 17, 2009, 5:36 pm Please log in for more thread options R.

They'll have to mail it in and wait on any refund. They can still opt for direct deposit into their checking account, which will shave a week or so off the timeframe. -- Paul Thomas, CPA Watkinsville, Georgia -- << ------------------------------------------------------- >> << The foregoing was not intended or written to be used, >> << nor can it used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties >> << that may be imposed upon the taxpayer. >> << >> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting posts >> << to this newsgroup as well as our anti-spamming policy >> << are at www.asktax.org. >> << Copyright (2007) - All rights reserved. >> << ------------------------------------------------------- >> Similar Threads Posted Reminder: New Nov. 30th Tax Deadline October 31, 2009, 11:29 am Three year deadline to file and receive a refund.
