G’day, I’m Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday’s Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one-minute moment.
And it’s April the 14th, which means we have less than 24 hours to file your taxes. If you haven’t actually finished your taxes, you’re pondering, you’re delaying, again, make sure you have filed an extension. It will eliminate one of the penalties: the failure-to-file penalty. And then if you have the money, but you just haven’t had the ability to finish the taxes, make a payment. Go ahead and send it. Go to IRS.gov. Click on the little button that says ‘Pay’. You can do ACH or credit card. They do charge you a 3% or 2.5% or 2.5% fee. But make the payment. That way, then, all you’re having to do is the documentation. You need help? 615-367-0819.
You can catch the Dr. Friday Call-In Show live every Saturday afternoon from 2 to 3 p.m. right here on 99.7 WTN.
