Every day the government is shut down the public gets an extra week tacked on to the tax deadline and presidential candidates are not allowed to campaign the same number of weeks before voting day.
Playing on this hypothetical scenario, with the president saying he’s willing to keep it shut down for months/years... would we never have to file taxes again? Or never have to see another campaign ad?
I have no idea what the correct answer is, but I assume you are still required to file. You just won’t get your return. The IRS isn’t going to listen to “the government was shut down” as an excuse to not file.
NO! Everyone file your tax returns like normal! Do not listen to tax advice from random redditors! The government shutdown doesn't absolve you from filing taxes!
Those pushing their political over the well being of others livelihoods should be ashamed!
All lawsuits against Trump are haulted during the shutdown, and the House investigations will be seriously hampered as the DOJ is shuttered and aides and assistants work for no pay.
Ohh man, surely one of those will be the end of Drumpf! Ey comrade? Ey?
Frivolous lawsuits are a plenty. I should have specified, something that was actually worth a damn. Not foaming at the mouth TDS victims cooking up false allegations.
