As April 15th approaches, those in the USA are swamped with the arduous task of completing the dreaded tax return. I took the easy way out this year and decided to take an extension. That?s another word for putting the unpleasant task off. A tax extension doesn?t mean you don?t have to pay what you owe, but only that you can delay sending in the return for an extra 6 months.

I was really busy this winter and decided in advance I didn?t want any extra stress. It?s lucky I filed the extension as last week an audit notice from the IRS?appeared in the mail box. I just spent a good part of 4 days pulling together all the requested documents. The 11 page packet went out yesterday and a huge weight was lifted!
