Servicemembers abroad have later tax filing deadline

The Pentagon and IRS are giving you another two months.

If you’re on duty in the military outside the united states, you can take a little more time to file your tax returns.

The Pentagon and IRS are giving you another two months, Defense.gov reports.

Some deployed service members already get an automatic 180-day extension…but there are some operations, like those in Japan and Libya, that don’t qualify for that grace period.

Tax day for everyone else falls on April 18.
