Can Turbotax e-file on Tax Day?

Hi guys.. I'm running late filing taxes. I will get my w2 tomorrow, April 15th, which is the last day to file taxes. If I get it and enter it in turbotax, can turbotax e-file the same day on tax day? I want to make sure it processes the filing of taxes on the same day.

Yes, you can still e-file on April 15. until midnight in your time zone for it to be filed "timely."   You always risk running into problems and stress if something goes wrong when you wait until the deadline.  

 

If you are getting a refund or do not owe, there is no penalty for filing after the deadline.
