If you filed an extension for your 2025 individual tax return, the extended filing deadline is October 15, 2026.

As a reminder, if you filed for an extension, it only gave you more time to file your return; it did not give you more time to pay any taxes.

Here are a few important reminders about the upcoming extended filing deadline:

🔹The sooner you file, the better. And, if you still owe taxes, interest and penalties may already be accruing.
🔹There are no further extensions. October 15th is the final deadline to file your 2025 extended return.
🔹Review your return carefully before filing. Missing documents, incorrect income information, or overlooked deductions can delay processing and may require an amended return later.

If you have questions about your return or need help preparing before the deadline, please contact our office. We’re here to help.

October is home to some truly unforgettable moments in history that remind us how one bold idea can shift the course of everything that follows. Here are three we are celebrating this month:

🏰 October 1, 1971 - Walt Disney World opened its doors in Orlando, Florida, welcoming families to what would become one of the most recognized destinations on earth. Beyond the rides and the magic, it became a global symbol of American imagination and storytelling, continuing to draw millions of visitors every year.

📞 October 9, 1876 - Alexander Graham Bell and Thomas Watson completed the first long-distance, two-way telephone conversation over outdoor wires, connecting Boston to East Cambridge.

🎵 October 23, 2001 - Steve Jobs introduced the iPod with the now iconic slogan "1,000 songs in your pocket." This changed how we listen to music and laid the groundwork for the iPhone and the modern smartphone era we live in today.

These moments continue to inspire us to think bigger, dream bolder, and never underestimate the lasting impact of one great idea.
