April 15th Is Only 40 Days Away! What Are You Waiting On?

🚨 IRS Interest Rates Remain Steady for Q2 2025 – What This Means for You 🚨

The IRS has announced that interest rates for overpayments and underpayments will remain unchanged for the second quarter of 2025. For individuals, the rate for overpayments and underpayments is 7% per year, compounded daily.

📌 Key Interest Rates Effective April 1, 2025:

✔ 7% for overpayments (6% for corporations)

✔ 4.5% for corporate overpayments exceeding $10,000

✔ 7% for underpayments (taxes owed but not fully paid)

✔ 9% for large corporate underpayments

💡 What This Means for You:

🔹 Avoid Costly Interest on Unpaid Taxes – If you owe taxes, paying as soon as possible helps prevent additional charges. Interest is compounded daily, so delays add up fast!

🔹 Make the Most of Overpayments – If you’re due a refund, your overpayment earns 7% interest while with the IRS. However, it may be more beneficial to apply those funds strategically rather than leaving them with the government.

🔹 Businesses & Corporations Take Note – Corporate underpayment rates remain high at 9% for large underpayments. If you operate a business, ensuring proper estimated payments can help avoid penalties and cash flow surprises.
