Filing Taxes Last Minute: A Guide to US Post Office Hours and Tax Deadlines on Tax Day 2020

Clarion, PA / United States - February 25 2018: USPS boxes in a row outside the post office.

Taxpayers who would normally be scrambling to get their returns finished by Tax Day got a little more breathing room this year. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the IRS will give taxpayers until Wednesday, July 15 to file their 2019 taxes, rather than the normal filing deadline of April 15.

Last tax season, the IRS received more than 139 million tax returns by the week ending April 26, 2019. You can file your tax return electronically or head to a U.S. post office on July 15 to mail your tax return.

Failing to adhere to the extended tax deadline will result in a late tax return fine and other penalties from the IRS. Taxpayers should also note that this extension applies to federal returns. The deadlines for filing state returns varies by state.

On Tax Day 2020, many U.S. post office hours will be extended to accommodate last-minute tax filers. As the number of taxpayers who file electronically rises, the number of people filing taxes last-minute has fallen.

One result is that the U.S. Postal Service has seen less of a necessity to offer extended Tax Day post office hours. This can make it tricky to know where and when you can mail off your federal and state tax returns — especially when you need to find post offices open late.

Use the following table to quickly find information about USPS hours on Tax Day 2020 in your state to find the post offices open late near you.

Post Offices Open Late on Tax Day in All 50 States and Washington, D.C.

To help you find the nearest post office open late on Tax Day 2020, GOBankingRates has compiled a list of post offices offering extended hours on July 15 in every state. Any postal office with regular hours or collections of 7 p.m. or later is featured on this list.

Even if your local post office hasn’t specifically noted late closures yet, it might still offer extended hours for Tax Day, so it’s a good idea to call and find out.

Here are other tips for mailing off your 2019 taxes:

  • Pay attention to collection hours. Collection hours aren’t always the same as closing hours and could affect your tax-filing postmark deadline. Just because a post office is open late doesn’t mean it’s still collecting mail for that day.

  • Know your post office’s last collection time. A post office’s last collection is the time at which the mail is taken for the last period that day — and when it’s actually postmarked. For example, if your post office is open until 9 p.m. on Tax Day 2020, but the last collection time is 7 p.m., you’ll need to get to the post office to mail your taxes before 7 p.m. to meet the July 15 tax postmark deadline. Otherwise, your taxes will be mailed out on July 16.

  • Watch out for common tax-filing mistakes. Errors might range from using the wrong amount of postage or writing the wrong address to not including all necessary forms. If you’re still worried about making that July 15 deadline, you might still be able to file for a tax extension. It’s fairly simple, and most filers qualify for a tax extension.

  • Most taxpayers will have to file returns with their states as well. You can find this information by checking with your state tax agency to confirm the deadline.

  • You can call the USPS directly. Reach it at 800-ASK-USPS (800-275-8777) for detailed information about post office extended hours on Tax Day 2020, collection boxes and mail pickups in your area.

  • You can call the IRS directly. Reach it at 800-829-1040 if you have any questions on how to file your tax return, or about your tax refund.

Where To Mail Your IRS Tax Returns

Where you mail your tax return depends on different factors, including your state, the form(s) you’re using and whether or not you’re including a payment. Also, keep in mind that federal taxes and state taxes are mailed to separate addresses. If you’re mailing your state returns, consult your state government website for the correct address. If you’re mailing your tax return to the IRS, follow the link under each state in the following table for the correct address. Failure to mail it to the right place could delay your refund and cause you to miss the federal tax deadline.

This guide is meant for reference only. Check with your local post office to verify its Tax Day 2020 hours. Someone there will be able to provide more details.
