If no budget agreement is reached, millions could be out of work, but
tax collection is considered "essential" but tax refunds will be delayed.
As the US government moves to the brink of a shutdown with budget talks
stalled, taxpayers should remember one thing: protect yourself but
paying your taxes on time.

hearing he was in talks with the White House budget agency about
contingency plans in the events of a government shutdown.
TAXES ARE DUE ON APRIL 18th THIS YEAR!!!!!
Lawmakers and the Obama administration continued talks yesterday to
avert a shutdown, racing against expiration of a temporary government
funding measure that ends this Friday. When the IRS Commissioner
was asked about the potential for a shutdown last week, he stated
that the talks seemed productive.
Time will tell......
