ISLAMABAD – The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has taken notice of unverified reports circulating on various media platforms claiming that the deadline for filing Income Tax Returns for Tax Year 2025 will be extended. “FBR categorically clarifies that these reports are false, baseless, and misleading as the deadline for filing Income Tax Returns for Tax Year 2025 will not be extended,” it announced. It also highlighted that a vast majority of taxpayers reside in areas unaffected by floods and have had ample time to discharge their national obligation of filing returns. FBR’s IRIS platform is fully operational, functioning smoothly, and taxpayers can easily file their returns using the new simplified income tax return form. FBR warned that failure to file returns by the due date will result in late-filer status and imposition of penalties under the law.
