Tax Extension Center continues its series of The Top 100 Reasons to File a Tax Extension. This series is intended to show taxpayers that a tax extension is valuable because it saves individuals and/or their businesses time, stress, and even money.
Here’s reason #36: your dog ate your tax paperwork.
It happens. And not just to kids and their homework. Sometimes good old Rover starts chewing on the wrong thing and you’re left with shredded tax forms, paperwork, and receipts. Now you have no record of what you earned or supposed to deduct.
I admit this is a silly example. But the whole point of our Top 100 list is to illustrate that there are tons of reasons to file a tax extension, but the great part is that the IRS doesn’t care. They don’t ask you for a reason. A tax extension is automatic!

Reason #22: life is just way too complicated these days and you can’t get all of the paperwork together in time.
When was the last time you bumped into someone and they told you that their life was simple and not that busy? Maybe never?
We all like to wax poetic about how complex our lives are these days. But the truth is…they are super complicated! Between our jobs and our families, there aren’t too many spare hours in a month, let a lone a day. And when we do get that spare time, the last thing most of us want to do is spend is searching for tax forms. Booooorrrrriiiiiinnnnnggggggggggg!
That’s why giving yourself or your business more time to get your paperwork together by filing a tax extension is a great option for more and more people every year. Those extra six months are extremely helpful for everyone – even the people that say their lives are complicated even though they really aren’t.
