State Filing Extension Due Date Nov. 15

Indiana’s individual income taxes’ due date for the extension of time to file is coming up on Nov. 15. If a taxpayer was granted a federal extension of time to file, they were also granted an extension to file with Indiana. It is important to file by the due date to avoid late filing penalties.

Do Your Research Before Donating to Charities

Are your customers interested in donating to charities assisting communities affected by crises and natural disasters? As tax season approaches, various scams start emerging like fake charity promoters will use emails, websites, and alter their caller ID to appear as a real charity. The IRS offers the following tips to help protect your clients against these scams:

Ask the caller for the exact name, website and mailing address to confirm the charity validation. The Tax Exempt Organization Search (TEOS) tool is useful to verify legitimacy.
Remember: do not feel pressured into making a payment at that exact moment, charities are happy to receive donations at ANY time.
Avoid providing gift cards or wire transfers when giving donations. Credit cards and checks are the safest ways to donate. Review the FBI’s resources on Charity and Disaster Fraud if you encounter a fake or suspicious charity before you donate.
