How the free date-back check works
- Answer four questionsAbout a minute. It names the page sitting in the folder.
- Pick a timeA short video call. Bring the PDF or the page with the date. A login is not required.
- Leave with the page namedCopy, more time, or a date that came back, and which return that date belongs to.
A copy is not a send
This check labels the paper in the folder. A saved PDF, a note you emailed yourself, and an extension page are not the filing. The filing is the page that came back with a date.
We will not log in as you, and we will not call a year finished on a copy. If the date is real, a Tax CFO then asks whether the election you have is the one to keep. A missing IRS date is the result we hand you.
Start the free check.Owners ask these questions first.
Is a saved PDF a filing?
No. The screen can turn green and the file can sit on the desktop. The Service has the send when a page comes back with a date.
Does the extension count as the return?
No. The extension page covers the original due date. The return needs its own acknowledgment later, with its own date.
Will you open my IRS account?
No. This check does not use your IRS login. If the page is gone, we say what to request, and you request it.
What happens after a real date?
The date is the floor. A Tax CFO then looks at whether the election matches the company you mean to keep, and one month gets closed on a named day.
