[QUOTE="USMCRanchGirl, post: 369594, member: 6043"] Well, what your accountant said wasn't [i]quite[/i] accurate. Yes, Al Sharpton pushed for Emancipation Day to be a legal holiday and it was recently enacted in Washington D.C. But, there is a Federal statute that's been around for 20 some-odd years that says if there is a holiday in D.C., it affects things nationwide, not just in D.C. Since the 15th fell on a Sunday this year, and by law, filing and payment deadlines would be pushed to the next business day, all the forms were printed to read a deadline of April 16th. But then the IRS realized that Emancipation Day fell on the 16th this year, so they changed the deadline according to the Federal statute. No additional money was spent to reprint the forms (not sure about advertising). In fact, the IRS posted a notice on their website specifically stating they would not be re-printing any already printed materials. In actuality, this isn't the first time this has happened - only the first time it's happened nationwide. Six eastern states served by the IRS processing facility in Massachusetts already had an April 17 filing date this year because in Massachusetts Patriots Day was observed on April 16 and they consider that a holiday. And now you know, as they say, the rest of the story. :D [/QUOTE]
