Income declarations are due on May 2, and those who fail to report income may be fined

The Tax Administration Service (SAT) announced that there will be no extensions for individuals to declare income for 2015. Those who fail to report their income by April 30 will be fined at least 1,240 pesos ($71).

The head of the SAT, Auristóteles Núñez Sánchez, said that although the deadline is Saturday, April 30, because Saturday is not a business day, the deadline will be extended to Monday, May 2.

“Those who owe taxes and fail to declare income by the deadline will be punished with a minimum fine of 1,240 pesos,” he added.

Núñez Sánchez said that the internet is the easiest way to declare income, but some people might need to declare in person at SAT offices, which will be open from Tuesday, April 26 to April 29 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., on Saturday, April 30 until 3 p.m. and on Monday, May 2 until 8 p.m. or until the last person is served.
