“The contingency plan for the Internal Revenue Service released by the Treasury Department shows that even though the agency will have to halt major operations in the event of a shutdown, it has no plans to push back any filing deadlines. That means tax returns — and tax payments — are still due by Oct. 15, the filing deadline for any taxpayers who received an extension. Among those expected to file by the 15th are the many same-sex couples who requested extensions while they waited for the Supreme Court to rule on the constitutionality of same-sex marriage.”
