Probably not. If you have a refund coming, there is no penalty for filing late. If you have tax due, the penalty is 5% of unpaid tax per month or part of the month.. but I don't think the IRS will assess any penalty for 23 minutes. And I'm assuming here that you paid your tax already.

Good to know! I'm in the same situation, last night I e-filed (and paid) less than one minute late!

Did anything happen? I was 8 min late and I am so bummed. Hoping there is a grace period of a few minutes at least.

Any updates here? Looks like my return is showing as 1 min late (even though I submitted just before deadline and my payment confirmation email is before deadline).

 

Hopefully that article holds correct.
