If you are taking a holiday weekend trip, and are worried about getting your taxes out the door in time for the typical April 15th tax deadline, rest easy, as the IRS has pushed back the 2007 tax deadline until Tuesday, April 17, 2007.
Taxpayers will have extra time to file and pay because April 15th falls on a Sunday in 2007, and the following day, Monday, April 16th, is Emancipation Day, a legal holiday in the District of Columbia.
