What to Note for Q3 Exclusively?

October 31 is the deadline for filing Q3 Form 720. In case when the due date falls on weekends or holidays, the IRS provides the opportunity to file the return on the following day.

In case of Q3 Form 720 filing, the deadline falls to Nov 2 (Monday). However, such postponement is not always the most preferable option. As it falls near the beginning of a new month, the business might be already busy with some other tasks.

To prevent possible problems and to have everything ready, it is advisable to file Q3 Form 720 earlier than the deadline. Now that the filing period for Q3 is opened with Simple720, any business can do this.
