April 15 is the traditional tax filing deadline. However, it was postponed in 2022, and this change is due to the weekend in the US capital, reports AL.com

April 16 is Emancipation Day in Washington, DC. The holiday commemorates the date in 1862 when President Abraham Lincoln signed the District of Columbia Compensated Emancipation Act, freeing 3000 slaves in the District of Columbia. It has been celebrated in the country's capital since 2005.
Since the April 16 holiday falls on a Saturday this year, it will be officially observed on the next weekday—Friday, April 15—on which all federal offices in Washington will be closed. This means the filing deadline is moved to Monday, April 18 for everyone except Maine and Massachusetts residents. Residents of these states must file by April 19 because April 18 is Patriots Day.

April 18 will also be the deadline for requesting a six-month extension of the deadline for filing and paying taxes due.
The IRS has yet to announce a date to start accepting tax returns for 2021. Last year, the IRS began accepting tax returns on February 12, about two weeks later than a year earlier. The IRS said the change was necessary due to the handling of the pandemic payments.
