Still scrambling to get your tax appointment in for the year? Well, the good news is that this year you have a few extra days to file. Taxpayers will have until Tuesday, April 17, 2012 to file their 2011 Federal income tax returns and California State Income Tax returns* and pay any tax due.
Regardless of the economic situation we all need to file our tax returns and report our earnings to the Governmental agencies annually. The rules are the same regardless of your gender.
