Who Must File?
Shelby has a mandatory filing ordinance- everyone 18 and over is required
to file a tax return, regardless of whether they have a taxable income. If
the person is retired and has no income other than retirement (no rentals,
part time jobs, etc.) they need to mark the box on the back of the tax
form and record the date they retired, sign and date the form.
Extension
In order for Shelby to grant an extension, a copy of Federal Extension
request must be received by April 15th.
Supporting Documents
Documentation is necessary to verify all amounts of taxable income-Federal
schedules, W-2’s, 1099’s are necessary or tax return will
be considered incomplete. A net loss may not be used to offset
W-2 income.

a payment is due, payment is due by this date, or penalty and interest
