☆ Here's what to do if you missed the federal tax deadline
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-23 | by ( Kate Dore | Cfp | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

The federal tax deadline was April 15 for most filers — and if you missed it, you should file your return and pay your balance as soon as possible, experts say. The late filing penalty is 5% of your unpaid balance per month or partial month, capped at 25% of your balance. Here's why it may work this timeHowever, that doesn't mean you should rush to file a return if you're still missing key information, like tax forms for your investments or other earnings. With missing information, the IRS could flag your tax return for audit, processing could be delayed or you could receive an agency notice. Of course, some filers in disaster areas automatically have more time to file federal returns and pay taxes owed.

☆ Trump’s extreme rhetoric is a mainstay of his 2024 campaign. Much of it could become a reality if he wins another term

His pledge to direct Justice Department investigations is backed by allies who view his second term as driven by a maximalist theory of a president’s authority. But it also underscores why a second Trump term would be dramatically different. Some in Washington saw them as guardrails for a White House intent on fracturing not one, but all three branches of government. Yet Trump, should he secure a second term, would enter the White House with his most powerful Republican critics on Capitol Hill almost all gone. That would be a position that isn’t backed by his second term policy plans, or his private impulses during his first term in office – or, for that matter, in the decades prior.

☆ 4 red flags for an IRS tax audit — and how to avoid the 'audit lottery,' according to tax pros
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-13 | by ( Kate Dore | Cfp | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

But everyday filers could still face an audit — and certain issues are more prone to IRS scrutiny, experts say. Audit rates of individual income tax returns decreased for all income levels from tax years 2010 to 2019, largely due to lower IRS funding, according to a report from the Government Accountability Office. Here are some of the biggest IRS audit red flags. Unreasonable tax breaksAnother red flag could be excessive deductions compared to what's considered normal for your income level, according to Losi. Earned income tax creditThe earned income tax credit, a tax break for low- to moderate-income workers, has historically been scrutinized "because the refundable part attracts certain bad actors," said Steber.

CNN —Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley on Tuesday said she thinks President Joe Biden should resign, as it would be in “the best interest of the country.”Asked by radio host Hugh Hewitt during an interview if she believes the president should step down, Haley responded: “Yes, I do.”“I think the Democrat Party knows that and I think that it is not just in the best interest of their party. It’s in the best interest of the country. What I will tell you – and I have said this from the very beginning – the party that gets rid of their 80-year-old candidate is the party that will win,” Haley said. The former South Carolina governor has frequently taken digs at Biden, who is 81, and former President Donald Trump, 77, over their age, arguing they are both too old to serve another four years as president. Haley, 52, has also been adamant about calling for term limits and mental competency tests for any politician over the age over the age of 75.

"I caution anyone on reading too much into an entire year, or a tax season of 3½ months, on five days worth of data." Last year, the average refund for the 2023 filing season was $3,167, as of Dec. 29, according to the IRS. A lot of people who typically file early — such as earned income tax recipients and child tax credit recipients — still haven't filed, Steber said. By law, filers claiming the refundable portion of the child tax credit or earned income tax credit won't get refunds until Feb. 27 at the earliest, the IRS says. Why some tax refunds could be biggerTypically, you can expect a refund when you overpay taxes throughout the year.
