In the United States, taxes are due April 15, though a lot of people get theirs filed earlier in the year if they’re expecting a refund on overpayment. How are you planning to spend your tax refund?
Might I suggest a nice VPS? Or ten?

Except not this year. May 17th: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/17/irs-pushes-april-15-us-tax-deadline-to-may-17.html
Two years in a row the IRS has extended the deadline due to COVID-19. A little extra breathing room for folks.
That said, if you file early you still get your refund early in most cases.
