Here are the filing dates to be aware of:

S-Corp filing date March 15
Personal return April 15
S-corp returns on extension are due September 15.
Personal returns on extension are due October 15.

The sooner we start, the more room we have to do it right. Leave it too long, and your preparer is left waiting while late penalties add up.
