(Fox Business) The IRS appears to have decided to heed the pleas of lawmakers and advocacy groups who have been urging the tax agency to postpone this year’s April 15 filing deadline.
The IRS confirmed on Tuesday afternoon that it postponed the deadline until May 17.
The tax agency said it planned to release additional details in the coming days.
Bloomberg was the first to report on Tuesday that the IRS was planning to delay the deadline by one month.
