S & C Corporation Deadline
📚 What This Guide Covers
This article explains the general IRS deadlines for S & C Corporations and how extensions work.
📊 Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Know the default filing requirement
In general, all businesses operating in the U.S. are required to report their activities to the IRS by filing annual tax returns.
Step 2: Use the correct due dates for the return type
The due date and type of tax return that is filed depends on the type of business entity.
Step 3: If you need more time, file Form 7004
If a business cannot file on time, Form 7004 should be submitted to request a tax extension.
Important: Form 7004 must be filed by the original due date of the business’ tax return.
Step 4: Understand the extension period
Depending on the type of business, the IRS will grant a five- or six-month extension period, beginning on the date the tax return was originally due.
Step 5: Review the key deadline dates
The deadline for both 1120 tax returns is:
- 15th of April (original)
- 15th of September (extended returns)
Please note these deadlines can change via the IRS. Check www.irs.gov for the most recent information.
❌ Important Note
NOTE: If a corporation files based on the fiscal year, the original filing due date is the 15th day of the 3rd month following the close of the taxable year.
