General Information

Date return filed, if different from original due date
If the date entered here is later than the return due date, the application calculates the penalty for failure to pay and the interest on the underpayment. If this field is blank, it defaults to the original due date of the return.
note
Use this field to customize the date due in the filing instruction inserts. Enter the date you want to appear in the filing instruction inserts, and then insert the variable [date filed f/t] in place of the variable [due date ASAP f/t] in the filing instruction inserts. If this field is blank, the date defaults to the due date of the return (original or extended).
