  "account": "The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has granted another extension to the deadline for submitting income tax returns for the year 2026. The original filing date was set for October 15, 2026, but has been extended to October 31, 2026. This extension applies to taxpayers who were previously required to file their returns by September 30, 2026 and whose deadline had been previously extended to October 15, 2026. The FBR made this decision following appeals from trade bodies and tax bar associations. This marks the second time this year that the deadline has been pushed back following similar requests. So far, 6.9 million tax returns have been filed this year. However, the filing season has faced numerous issues, including slowdowns, glitches, bugs and problems with the IRIS portal, which often failed to accept returns correctly from many individuals.",
