Making the TaxProf list

February 21, 2009

Long-time readers know that I'm a total fangirl of TaxProf Blog. This comprehensive compendium of taxing-good blogginess was one of the first resources I found when I started Don't Mess With Taxes back in late 2005.

I got an even bigger thrill when, in January 2006, TaxProf's author Paul Caron mentioned my then-new blog in his look at the growth of tax blogging.

So you can imagine how jazzed I was when I discovered that this past week Don't Mess With Taxes made TaxProf's list of Top 10 Tax Blogs. He compiled the collection for Blogs.com.

As Blogs.com notes in its introduction, Caron is Associate Dean of Faculty and Charles Hartsock Professor of Law at the University of Cincinnati College of Law. Caron does that while also penning TaxProf Blog, "the most popular tax blog on the Internet and the most popular law-focused blog edited by a single law professor."

All I can say about being tapped by such a respected member of the tax community is Wow! And thanks. I'll definitely do my best to continue to earn the positive notice.

Oh yes, I also can say check out all the fine tax blogs that TaxProf, in alphabetical order, cites:

And thanks, too, to my Taxpayer Advocacy Panel colleague, law student and new tax blogger Justin for seeing TaxProf's list before I did and tipping me to it.

Tax Season 2026 Continues!

We made it. Tax Day 2025 is finally over. For most of us. When the filing season started on Jan. 26, millions who were expecting refunds filed immediately. Most of us got our returns to the Internal Revenue Service by April 15. But plenty of taxpayers also got extensions. They are looking at an Oct. 15 filing deadline.

Those procrastinating filers aren’t a problem. In fact, the IRS appreciates taxpayers who take time to fill out their 1040 forms correctly. It also is grateful that tax submissions are spread out a bit, especially now that the IRS is a leaner agency. Processing returns is easier when they arrive throughout the year instead of in massive bunches.

But enough about Uncle Sam’s tax collection issues. The focus now is on all y’all who filed for extensions, giving you another six months to complete your return. Since your new mid-October due date will be here before you know it, let’s get started now on meeting it.

The ol’ blog is here to help you finish up your extended Form 1040. You can start with January’s tax tips page, which has links to the rest of the year’s tips by-month collections. You also can peruse various tax categories for more tailored advice by clicking on the More Tax Posts drop-down menu at the top of this (and every) page.

And to make sure you don’t miss your new filing deadline, the count-down clock below will let you know just how much time you to file by Oct. 15. At the latest.e. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)
