Here’s reason #90: baseball season starts in early April. You need to concentrate on your fantasy team.
Decisions. Decisions.
Taxes or fantasy baseball? Filing a 1040 or an auction draft? Taking that extra deduction or that all-important second closer in the first 15 rounds?

Here’s reason #80: you won the lottery and spent a lot of money this year. It’s going to be a while until your accountant finishes going through your receipts.
The upside is you got rich and went on a huge spending spree. That’s great! The downside is your taxes are going to be a heck of a lot more complicated – especially since all of your receipts are currently sitting in a shoebox. You’re accountant is going to love you!

Here’s reason #79: your wife always handles your taxes… and she just left you.
As if getting a ‘Dear John’ letter wasn’t hard enough. What really stinks is when your wife or girlfriend was the one that handled taxes each Spring. Now what are you supposed to do?

Here’s reason #75: your car broke down and your CPA doesn’t make house calls.
You finally get up the nerve to go see your CPA and what happens? Your car breaks down. Darn! Taxes will have to wait.

Here’s reason #72: you qualify for some federal tax credits (like the housing tax credit) but can’t find good information on how to apply it.
Taxes all by themselves are confusing enough. So confusing that many people pay good money to a professional so they don’t have to deal with it. Mix in special one-time federal programs like the First-Time Homebuyer Credit or the Earned Income Tax Credit and the complexity ratchets up a few notches. All the more reason to hire an accountant.
Those of us who choose to do their taxes on their own really get dealt a curve ball in situations like this where federal tax credits are dealt out to the masses. We have to educate ourselves about the ramifications. That’s tough to do. The information isn’t going to just show up in the mail. It has to be searched for and found. And the source has to be reliable!

Here’s reason #65: it’s fast – file a tax extension online in just 5 minutes.
What sounds better? Endless highly-stressful hours spent flailing around to get your taxes filed on time or 5 minutes to give yourself an extra 6 months to file?
No-brainer, right?
For all of the hardship and stress that filing a tax extension at the last minute can bear, filing a tax extension is refreshingly fast. In 5 minutes or less, you can e-file a tax extension directly to the IRS and have the security of an extended tax deadline.

Here’s reason #53: avoid the long, annoying lines at the post office.
It happens every year. I see it at the post office right down the street from me. Starting in the first few days of April, I notice that the line starts to creep out the door a couple of hours per day. By April 15, not only is the line permanently out the door, it’s around the corner and down the block. Everyone in line looks like they are competing to be voted the most miserable person on the planet.
