Filing Taxes Last Minute: A Guide to Tax Day United States Post Office Hours and Tax Deadlines

With Tax Day nearly here, many last-minute filers will be scrambling to wrap up their taxes and get them filed by the April 18 tax returndeadline. While the majority of taxpayers file their taxes by April, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) estimates that 28 percent of filers wait until the last 15 days of the tax season. And a portion of those will file on the very last day; some will submit tax returns electronically while others will head to the United Statespost office on Monday to mail their tax return. Failing to do so will result in alate tax return fineand other penalties from the IRS.

On Tax Day, many U.S. post officeholidayhours are extended and special consideration is made for last-minute tax filers. But Tax Day post office hours of operation might still be more limited in 2016 than in years past. As the number of taxpayers who file electronically continues to rise, the number of peoplefiling taxes last-minutehas fallen, meaning that the post office has seen less of a necessity to offer extended Tax Day hours. This can make it tricky to know where you can file your federal and statetaxes -- especially when you need to find the nearest post office box at the last minute. After all, you don't want to be filing your taxes late and risk tax penalty.

Post offices open late on tax day in all 50 states (and D.C.)GOBankingRates has compiled a list of post offices offering extended hours on April 18 in every state to help you find the nearest post office so that you can getyour taxreturns in on time. Any postal officewith regular hours or collections of 7 p.m. and later are featured on this list, as well as those that reported other Tax Day services, like tax return collection boxes, later pickups or self-service kiosks. This list is not all-inclusive and other post officelocations might offer later hours -- and locations on this list could offer extended hours that aren't listed; GOBankingRates aimed to find post offices near you with the latest regular or confirmed Tax Day hours in major metropolitan areas in each state.

Please note that this guide is meant for reference only and that you should verify Tax Day hours with your local post office, which will be able to provide more details on April 18 operations. In addition, please pay attention to collection hours, as these vary from closing hours for many post offices and could directly affect a filer's taxdeadline for mailing a tax return on Tax Day.

A post office's last collection is the time at which the mail is taken for the last period that day -- the time the mail is actually postmarked. For example, if your post office is open until 9 p.m. on Tax Day, but the last collection time is 7 p.m., you'll need to get to the post office to mail your taxes before 7 p.m. for your taxes to be postmarked by April 18. Otherwise, your taxes will be mailed out on April 19.

Lastly,pay attention to details and watch out forcommon tax-filing mistakes, from using the wrong amount of postage to writing the wrong address or not including all necessary forms.If you're still worried about making that April 18 deadline, you might still be able tofile for a tax extension. It's fairly simple and most filers qualify for a tax extension.

You can call theUnited StatesPostalService(USPS) directly at (800) ASK-USPS (800-275-8777) for detailed information onTaxDaypostofficeextendedhours, collection boxes andmailpickups in your area. You can also call the IRS directly at (800) 829-1040if you have any taxquestions about your tax return or tax refund.

Where to mail your IRS tax returnsWhere you mail your tax return is dependent on many factors: the state you live in, the form(s) you're using and whether or not you're including a payment. Not to mention, federal taxes and state taxes are mailed to separate addresses. If you're mailing your state returns, consult your state government website for the correct address. However, if you're mailing your federal taxes to the IRS, follow the link under each state for the correct address.
