January 2027 holidays
January 2027 has 2 federal holidays: New Year's Day on Friday, January 1, 2027 and Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday, January 18, 2027.
| Federal holiday | Date | Day off (observed) | Rule |
|---|---|---|---|
| New Year's Day | Friday, January 1, 2027 | Same day | January 1 |
| Martin Luther King Jr. Day | Monday, January 18, 2027 | Same day | 3rd Monday of January |
A federal holiday that falls on a Saturday is observed on the Friday before, and one on a Sunday is observed on the Monday after. These are the days off for most federal employees. Employers, schools and states can follow different schedules.
How many working days are in January 2027?
January 2027 has 19 working days. The month has 21 weekdays (Monday to Friday), and 2 of them are federal holidays: New Year's Day (Friday, January 1, 2027) and Martin Luther King Jr. Day (Monday, January 18, 2027).
Payroll teams use this count to prorate a monthly salary for someone who starts mid-month. Freelancers and agencies use it to estimate billable days. A business that stays open on MLK Day has 20 working days in January.
Long weekends in January 2027
January 2027 has 2 three-day weekends, both created by federal holidays:
- Friday, January 1 to Sunday, January 3 (New Year's Day)
- Saturday, January 16 to Monday, January 18 (Martin Luther King Jr. Day)
The New Year break runs Friday to Sunday. Thursday, December 31, 2026 is a normal working day for federal employees, because New Year's Day 2027 is observed on the day itself.
When is Martin Luther King Jr. Day 2027?
Martin Luther King Jr. Day 2027 is Monday, January 18, 2027. The holiday falls on the 3rd Monday of January, so it always lands between January 15 and January 21. Its legal name is the "Birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr."; Dr. King was born on January 15, 1929.
The King Holiday and Service Act of 1994 also made the day a national day of service, and AmeriCorps coordinates volunteer projects for it each year. Federal offices and the U.S. Postal Service close. Private employers set their own holiday lists, so check yours before planning a day off.
Tax and payroll dates in January 2027
The 4th-quarter 2026 estimated tax payment is due Friday, January 15, 2027. Self-employed workers and others without enough tax withheld use Form 1040-ES for this payment, which covers income from September 1 to December 31, 2026.
Employers must give employees their 2026 Form W-2 by Monday, February 1, 2027. The usual January 31 deadline falls on a Sunday, and the IRS moves a deadline that lands on a weekend or legal holiday to the next business day (IRS Publication 509).
Week numbers in January 2027
January 2027 covers ISO week 53 of 2026 and weeks 1–4. January 1–3 belong to ISO week 53 of 2026, because 2026 is a 53-week ISO year. ISO week 1 of 2027 starts on Monday, January 4, 2027.
ISO weeks start on Monday, and week 1 is the week that holds the year's first Thursday. The week-numbers design prints the number on every row. Its Sunday-start version labels each row with the ISO week of that row's Monday.
