Mitchell & Nemitz, PA

We work on tax returns in the order that they are received, so we recommend getting us your information as soon as you have the majority of your tax info even if you are waiting on 1-2 documents. By the time you receive those documents, we should be about ready to start on preparing your return(s).

To allow for quicker turn-around times for tax return completion and in an effort to better control our workflow, we are now scheduling tax return data submissions for a specific date. In order to keep our turn-around time to 3-4 weeks or less, we will only be accepting a certain number of return data submissions per day.

Please contact our office at 919-556-9500 to request our Calendly link or to get assistance with scheduling your tax information submission date.

Deadlines (If You Do Not Want an Extension)

Business Returns (1120 or 1065):

• Submit by 2/15 - guaranteed completion by 3/15 (if there are no issues with incomplete document submission or missing information).

• After 2/15, all business returns are automatically extended and completed after the personal filing deadline.

Individual (1040) & Estate/Trust (1041) Returns:

• Submit by 3/1 - guaranteed completion by the April deadline (if there are no issues with incomplete document submission or missing information).

• After 3/1, returns are automatically extended and will be prepared on a first-come, first-served basis starting 4/20. Because we work extended hours, don't close on any federal holidays or take vacations January through April 15th, our staff takes a much-needed break for a couple of days after the 15th. This year our office will be closed April 16th & 17th. Once we return back to the office on 4/20, we will start on the returns received after 3/1 and we will resume our normal hours of 8am-5pm Monday-Thursday and 8am-12pm on Friday. 

Deadlines (Extended Returns):

• Business Returns (1120 or 1065) & associated 1040/1041: Last day to submit is 7/15.

• Individual (1040) or Estate/Trust (1041) returns without a business: Last day to submit is 8/15.

About Filing Extensions:

Filing an extension does not increase your audit risk. The IRS encourages taxpayers to file extensions when needed, and the request is automatically approved—no explanation required. In fact, most of our partners and CPAs file personal extensions each year to allow time for complete and accurate returns.

If you feel rushed or stressed, please do not hesitate to have us file an extension on your behalf. Simply email jennifer@mitchellnemitzcpa.com.

We do recommend making an estimated payment with your extension to avoid penalties or interest.

New Tax Law Information:

Regardless of whether you itemized deductions in a prior year, changes under current tax law may allow you to itemize this year. Please be sure to include the following with your 2025 tax documents, if applicable:

• Vehicle taxes paid

• Personal property taxes paid

• Real estate/property taxes paid

• Charitable donations

• Mortgage interest

Important for Teachers: A new law may provide a tax benefit for the 2026 tax year. Please be sure to track all out-of-pocket educator expenses paid during 2026.

This does not apply to the 2025 tax return.

Please note: We will no longer be filing Business Property Tax Listings moving forward.
