It's here! Today is the day many Americans dread but also anticipate: the tax filing deadline. Remember, folks, the clock is ticking! You must file your taxes by midnight tonight to avoid potential penalties.

Need More Time? Don't Panic!

If you're feeling overwhelmed and won't make the deadline, don't panic. You can still request an extension from the IRS. To do so, call the IRS directly at 1-800-829-1040. Be prepared for potential wait times, as their phone lines are likely to be busy.

Smart Strategies for Your Tax Return

For those expecting a tax refund, here's some crucial advice: resist the urge to splurge!

  • Build Your Savings: The best use of your refund is to build a solid foundation of savings. This will provide a cushion for unexpected expenses and contribute to your overall financial stability.

  • Pay Off Revolving Debt: If you have high-interest revolving debt, such as credit card balances, use a portion of your refund to pay it down or eliminate it entirely. This will save you money on interest and improve your credit utilization ratio.

Tax Season: A Credit Check-Up

Tax season is also the perfect time to review your credit report.

  • Identify Issues: Carefully examine your report for any errors, inaccuracies, or negative items that may be dragging down your score.

  • Start Credit Repair: If you find problems, now is the time to start your credit repair journey!

Build Credit While You Repair

For those with poor or no credit, consider opening a secured savings account with a service like Kikoff. This can be a valuable tool for building positive credit history while you work on repairing existing damage.
