The Cities and States With the Biggest Tax Procrastinators

As Tax Day nears this year, many people loathe filing their taxes. Even with the tax filing deadline extended, many Americans will put off filing their taxes until the very last minutes.

A new study by IPX 1031 took a look at the subject of tax procrastinators. In the study, they examined the biggest tax procrastinators both on the state level and on the city level. They also examined when Americans filed their taxes in 2019 by analyzing IRS data to specifically see the most popular weeks for tax filing. This data was also supplemented by a survey of 1,000 Americas about Tax Day. In the survey, they asked respondents to identify when Tax Day was, asked about expected tax refund amounts and how people plan on using their refund check. Let’s examine the major takeaways of the study from IPX 1031.
