    Details on the storm-related filing extension

    Consumer Reports News: April 17, 2007 03:39 PM

    The IRS has finally announced the details regarding its ad hoc, 2-day tax filing extension for folks affected by yesterday's Nor'easter.

    The FAQ's in the above link don't mention anything about extra time to establish and fund an IRA for tax-year 2006. But an IRS spokesman gave me the following information late on Tuesday: There is no deadline extension for funding a 2006 traditional or Roth IRA, or a health savings account. So you still need to do that by midnight tonight.
