Filing due dates for self-employed

Filing due dates for self-employed

Due dates for self-employed individuals to file their taxes:

  • relating mostly to a tax shelter investment, your tax reporting return must be filed by April 30;
  • other than those relating mostly to a tax shelter investment, your tax reporting return must be filed by June 15.

If there is a balance due for the reporting tax year, it must be paid by April 30.

Failure to file by this date will result in a minimum 5% late filing tax penalty for taxes owed plus 1% of the balance owing for each full month that the return is late, to a maximum of 12 month, which may increase if you have a history of late filings.
