The deadline to file your 2008 Federal Form 1040/1040A/1040EZ is 4/15/2009.
You can get an extension to 10/15/2009 by filing Form 4868 by 4/15/2009.
However, if you file for an extension, you should pay your estimated balance due with the request, since any unpaid tax after 4/15 is subject to interest and possibly penalty even if you have an extension to file.
If you are asking about a previous year's taxes, there is no time limit to file. But, in most cases, if you file more than three years late you will not receive a refund. There are some exceptions. If you are late, just go ahead and file as soon as you can. If you haven't filed for 2005 yet and are due a refund from 2005, hurry because the deadline for claiming a 2005 refund is 4/15/2009 (just a few days from now!).
State tax deadlines may vary. Check the instructions for your state tax return.
For more information go to the IRS gov web site and use the search box for How long should I keep records?
The length of time you should keep a document depends on the action, expense, or event the document records. Generally, you must keep your records that support an item of income or deductions on a tax return until the period of limitations for that return runs out.
The period of limitations is the period of time in which you can amend your tax return to claim a credit or refund, or that the IRS can assess additional tax. The below information contains the periods of limitations that apply to income tax returns. Unless otherwise stated, the years refer to the period after the return was filed. Returns filed before the due date are treated as filed on the due date.
Note: Keep copies of your filed tax returns. They help in preparing future tax returns and making computations if you file an amended return.
