If you haven't filed your taxes yet, there are still a few days left before the April 15 deadline for tax returns and extension requests.

Dan Boone, a spokesman for the IRS, says you don't need a reason or excuse to file for an extension request, but it must be filed by April 15.

The IRS estimates that more than 127,000 people in Alabama will file extensions requesting more time to fill out their tax returns and avoid the late penalty, Boone said.

The IRS offered the following answers to six most commonly asked questions from last-minute Alabama filers:

Alabama drivers are getting a little relief at the pump. You may have noticed gas prices have dropped about 20 cents in the last month. It's a welcome sight as many people are traveling for spring break.

Several drivers say they pay close attention to gas prices and they're always searching for the cheapest prices.

"I get gas every three days and I spend $20 at a time so I end up spending a lot on gas. Less now that we moved. I still work in Trussville so it's a big of a drive but I spend a lot of time hunting for the station with the cheapest gas prices," driver Mia Osborn said.

Right now it looks like that's in Tuscaloosa where regular unleaded averages $3.43. In Birmingham, the average is $3.45, which is still cheaper than the state's average of $3.47. The national average is $3.65.

This time last month gas prices were hovering around $3.65 while the national average was $3.77.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Gov. Robert Bentley and leaders of the Alabama Department of Commerce have unveiled a "Made in Alabama" logo that the governor says will be used to help tell Alabama's story to potential economic development clients.

The governor showed off the "Made in Alabama" logo printed on a red background at a news conference Tuesday on the state Capitol steps in Montgomery.

He says the logo's purpose is to ensure officials looking to establish a new business or expand an existing one know about Alabama. The governor says he's proud to tell the world about products made in Alabama.

Bentley also released a report from the Alabama Department of Commerce showing that 38,000 new jobs had been created in Alabama since he took office in January, 2011.
