Tax Day is a few days away — Monday, May 17. If you’ve not filed your tax return yet and don’t think you’ll make the deadline, you can ask for a bit more time by filing for a tax extension. If you want to file your taxes by May 1, a handful of tax preparer services like TurboTax and H&R Block can help you get everything sorted with minimal hassle. Or maybe you already filed and would like to follow up with one of these tax preparers. We’ll point you in the right direction.

This tax season could be more complicated if you’re still waiting on your $1,400 stimulus check (or the first or second checks). Not to mention, you might be fielding unemployment insurance claimsstimulus check income and pandemic-driven changes in residence. On the bright side, you might be owed more money for a number of reasons this year, like if you had a baby, claimed newly qualified dependents or are part of a mixed-citizenship status family. If you have any questions while you prepare to file or after you’ve sent in your claim, you may be trying to figure out how to contact your tax service provider.
