The deadline to file an individual extended federal income tax return for 2024 is coming soon, on Wednesday, Oct. 15. If you still need to file, you should gather Social Security numbers for everyone on your return; bank account and routing numbers for direct deposit; any Forms W-2 and 1099; records related to any virtual currency transactions; and supporting documents for credits or deductions you’re claiming. If you’re missing a W-2 or 1099 or received an incorrect form, contact your employer or the issuer immediately. If you can’t obtain these forms in time, it may be possible to file Form 4852, Substitute for Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, instead. Contact the Cg Team with questions. © 2025
