Tax Calendars for 2007 (Publication 509), has been released by the IRS.
A tax calendar is a 12-month calendar divided into quarters. The calendar gives specific due dates for the following: Filing tax forms; Paying taxes; and Taking other actions required by federal tax law. Employers are the primary users of this publication, however, the general tax calendar has important due dates for all businesses and individuals. Also, anyone who must pay excise taxes may need the excise tax calendar. To decide which calendar(s) to use, first look at the general tax calendar and highlight the dates that apply to you. If you are an employer, also use the Employer’s Tax Calendar. If you must pay excise taxes, use the Excise Tax Calendar. Depending on your situation, you may need to use more than one calendar. Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday. Generally, if a due date for performing any act for tax purposes falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, it is delayed until the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday. These calendars make this adjustment for Saturdays, Sundays, and most legal holidays. But you must make any adjustments for statewide legal holidays. (An exception to this rule for certain excise taxes is noted under the Excise Tax Calendar.)
