ExpressTaxRefund.com Reminds Taxpayers Federal Filing Deadline is April 17

MINEOLA, N.Y., April 12, 2007 -- For the second year in a row, taxpayers have a little extra time to file their federal tax returns. April 15th falls on a Sunday, and Monday, April 16, is Emancipation Day--a legal holiday in Washington, D.C.--making Tuesday, April 17, 2007, the official federal filing deadline, explained Michele Tyson, spokesperson for leading online tax filing service ExpressTaxRefund.com (http://www.expresstaxrefund.com).

"There may be some confusion about the actual federal filing deadline for 2006 tax returns, because the IRS initially named April 16th as the last day to file and pay," said Tyson. "However, the IRS has now amended that date to April 17th in keeping with a federal statute under which legal holidays in Washington, D.C. apply to tax issues nationwide. ExpressTaxRefund.com wants to make sure our clients are all aware of the newly extended deadline."

New and returning ExpressTaxRefund.com clients can e-file their returns and extension requests through April 17th. The process is quick and affordable, thanks to ExpressTaxRefund.com's industry-leading online tax preparation system. The five-year-old site runs on a proprietary software platform that walks the client through a step-by-step interview, then uses the client's answers to prepare a tax return on the spot, taking into account all applicable tax law changes.
