Taxes are due by April 15, 2026, which falls on a Wednesday. If you don't expect to file by then, you can request a six-month extension.

The tax bracket income levels for 2026 are increasing by 2.3% and new tax breaks could allow you to keep more take-home pay.

In 2026, some retirees will owe taxes on their Social Security benefits. This is true despite the fact that President Donald Trump pledged he would change the rules to eliminate taxes on them, and later said the majority of seniors wouldn't face taxes on their Social Security income.
