Those who waited until the last minute can’t wait any longer.
It’s time to pay the man.
Federal income tax filings must be postmarked no later than Monday to meet the deadline and avoid penalties.
Three extra days were given to taxpayers this year in observation of Emancipation Day, a holiday observed in the District of Columbia, which fell this year on April 15, the traditional tax filing deadline.
Lucas Robinson, a customer service supervisor at the Port Angeles Post Office, said filings will be postmarked as long as the post office receives them before closing.
“It’s best to get in first thing in the morning,” he said. “That way, it makes it the first truck out of here.”
No post offices on the North Olympic Peninsula plan late hours Monday.
