In 2026, the federal filing deadline for calendar-year S Corporations and Partnerships is Monday, March 16th.

โ†’ Your business files its return (March 16th)
โ†’ The IRS receives a copy
โ†’ Owners receive K-1s
โ†’ Owners file personal returns (April 15th)

And donโ€™t forget to check your specific stateโ€™s filing obligations, as they may be different than federal guidelines. ... See MoreSee Less
