Those who owe payments up to $1,000,000 as individuals or $10,000,000 as a corporation may claim this 90-day delay in payment without interest or penalties.1
I recommend that you consult your tax, legal, and accounting professionals before modifying your existing tax strategy. While it’s my intention to keep you updated on the most recent information, this is not a replacement for professional tax advice, so be sure to reach out with questions.
