Announcement: Extension of 2024 Income Tax Pay & File Deadline

Attention all self-employed individuals and business owners: Revenue has announced an important update for those who file their taxes online via the Revenue Online Service (ROS). The traditional October 31 deadline for submitting your income tax returns and payments has been extended.

Extended Deadline Details: For 2024, the new deadline to file your 2023 Form 11 return and make the appropriate payment through ROS is now Thursday, November 14, 2024. This extension applies specifically to customers who:

1. File their 2023 Form 11 income tax return.
2. Make the payment for their preliminary tax for 2024. 
3. Settle the income tax balance due for 2023.

It’s important to note that to qualify for this extension, both the filing and the payment must be completed through ROS. If either action is conducted outside of ROS, the standard deadline of October 31, 2024, will apply.

Additional Information: This extension also includes the deadline for making returns and payments related to Capital Acquisitions Tax (CAT) for beneficiaries receiving gifts or inheritances with valuation dates in the year ending August 31, 2024.

While the extension provides additional time, it is best not to wait until the last moment to prepare your tax return. Early preparation allows for more thorough tax planning and can help identify potential tax savings or strategies applicable to your situation. Preparing your return well in advance of the deadline maximizes these opportunities.
