General Federal Tax Calendar:
1st Quarter 2024

The first quarter of a calendar year is made up of January, February, and March.

January 10:
Employees who work for tips. If you received $20 or more in tips during December, report them to your employer. You can use Form 4070. ( irs.gov )
January 16:
Individuals. Make a payment of your estimated tax for 2023 if you didn't pay your income tax for the year through withholding (or didn't pay in enough tax that way). Use Form 1040-ES. This is the final installment date for 2023 estimated tax payments. However, you don't have to make this payment if you file your 2023 return (Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR) and pay all tax due by January 31, 2024. ( irs.gov )
Farmers and fishermen. Pay your estimated tax for 2023 using Form 1040-ES. You have until April 15 (April 17 if you live in Maine or Massachusetts) to file your 2023 income tax return (Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR). If you don't pay your estimated tax by January 16, you must file your 2023 return and pay all tax due by March 1, 2024, to avoid an estimated tax penalty. ( irs.gov )
January 31:
Payers of non-employee compensation. File Form 1099-NEC for nonemployee compensation paid in 2023. ( irs.gov )
All businesses. Give annual information statements to recipients of certain payments you made during 2023. You can use the appropriate version of Form 1099 or other information return. Form 1099 can be issued electronically with the consent of the recipient. Payments that may be covered include the following.
  • Cash payments for fish (or other aquatic life) purchased from anyone engaged in the trade or business of catching fish.
  • Compensation for workers who aren't considered employees (including fishing boat proceeds to crew members).
  • Dividends and other corporate distributions.
  • Interest.
  • Rent.
  • Royalties.
  • Payments of Indian gaming profits to tribal members.
  • Profit-sharing distributions.
  • Retirement plan distributions.
  • Original issue discount.
  • Prizes and awards.
  • Medical and health care payments.

See the General Instructions for Certain Information Returns for information on what payments are covered, how much the payment must be before a statement is required, which form to use, when to file, and extensions of time to provide statements to the IRS. Form 1099-B, Proceeds From Broker and Barter Exchange Transactions; Form 1099-S, Proceeds From Real Estate Transactions; and certain reporting on Form 1099-MISC, Miscellaneous Information, are due to recipients by February 15. ( irs.gov )
Individuals who must make estimated tax payments. If you didn't pay your last installment of estimated tax by January 16, you may choose (but aren't required) to file your income tax return (Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR) for 2023 by January 31. Filing your return and paying all tax due by January 31 prevents any penalty for late payment of the last installment. If you can't file and pay your tax by January 31, file and pay your tax by April 15 (April 17 if you live in Maine or Massachusetts). ( irs.gov )
February 12:

All businesses. Give annual information statements to recipients of certain payments you made during 2023. You can use the appropriate version of Form 1099 or other information return. Form 1099 can be issued electronically with the consent of the recipient. This due date applies only to the following types of payments.
  • All payments reported on Form 1099-B.
  • All payments reported on Form 1099-S.
  • Substitute payments reported in box 8 or gross proceeds paid to an attorney reported in box 10 of Form 1099-MISC.
