Filing Reminder for Self-Employed Individual and Spouse
28 May 2010
For self-employed persons (if you or your spouse carried on a business in 2009, other than a business whose expenditures were mainly in connection with a tax shelter), your return for 2009 has to be filed on or before June 15, 2010.
Please note that although the return is due June 15th, any taxes owing for the 2009 tax year were due on April 30, 2010. Interest will be charged on late payments and penalties will apply to the unpaid tax if your return is not filed on time.
