...that under a federal statute enacted decades ago, holidays observed in the District of Columbia have an impact nationwide, not just in D.C.?   Under recently enacted city legislation, April 16 is a holiday in the District of Columbia.   The IRS recently became aware of the intersection of the national filing day and the local observance of the new Emancipation Day holiday after most forms and publications for the current tax filing season went to print. Thus the reason for our one-day tax filing reprieve this year.
