are registered to file online you have some extra time. Completed forms must be posted by midnight. If you live in a department numbered from 1 to 19, you have until the end of June 10 to

file online. The deadline for departments 20 to 49 is a week later, on June 17. Departments 50 and above must file online by June 24. If this is your first time declaring online, you will
