Every year, itโs the same question โ when can tax returns actually be filed?
Tax returns for 2025 can be submitted starting February 23, 2026.
Just a reminder: no matter which category you fall into, if you end up owing taxes, the payment is due by April 30 โ the same date most people are required to file.
The exception is self-employed individuals:
They can file their return up to June 15,
But any balance owing is still due by April 30.
