IRS Tax Day Message: Thank You for Filing
Monday marks April 18, the annual tax deadline and a unique day for citizens of our nation. On behalf of the employees of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), I want to thank everyone for taking the time to file and pay their taxes. This civic duty is important to our great nation in many ways, by funding critical needs essential to our democracy on issues ranging from schools and roads to defense. The IRS collects about $4.1 trillion a year, about 96 percent of the U.S. gross revenue.
