Inside the March 2027 printable
- Page 1 (Sunday first). Day 1 sits in the Monday column, and the grid needs five rows.
- Page 2 (Monday first). Day 1 opens the top row; the 31st, a Wednesday, closes the fifth.
- Page 3 (planner). A spending plan, tax prep boxes, a bills list, spring plans and lined notes.
Use US Letter, or pick A4 and turn on scaling. Cardstock holds up better on a fridge.

You won't find a federal day off this month. On the OPM 2027 federal holiday schedule, Presidents Day (February 15) is followed directly by Memorial Day (May 31), so banks, post offices and federal offices stay open all of March. Our guide to Good Friday 2027 covers Easter weekend, and the Easter countdown shows the days left.
Daylight saving time: Sunday, March 14
Clocks spring forward at 2:00 a.m. on Sunday, March 14, 2027. NIST's daylight saving time page explains the rule: it starts on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. Hawaii and most of Arizona stay on standard time.
A simple plan for the weekend:
- Move bedtimes 15 minutes earlier for a few nights before, especially for kids.
- Change the clocks Saturday night on the stove, microwave and car.
- Check smoke alarm batteries while you're already walking room to room.
- Keep Sunday light. Save big errands for the next weekend.
Our daylight saving time guide has the 2026 and 2027 dates and a full prep checklist.
Easter weekend comes early: March 26 to 28
In 2027, Easter lands in March. Good Friday is March 26 and Easter Sunday is March 28, with Palm Sunday on March 21. That means spring break, Easter baskets and a holiday meal may all fall in the last two weeks of the month. Put the meal, the basket budget and any travel on the planner page now, while there's still time to spread the cost over a few paychecks.
A March tax prep checklist
Most families don't file until April, yet March is the month the forms land on the counter. The IRS page on when to file says calendar-year individual filers file on April 15, and the date moves only when the 15th falls on a weekend or legal holiday. The planner page has a five-line checklist:
- W-2s and 1099s gathered. Most arrive by early February; chase any that are missing.
- Deduction paperwork in one folder. Donation receipts, medical bills, childcare costs and side-income expenses.
- Filing date picked. Choose a date before April 15 and write it in its box.
- Q1 estimated tax set aside. If you pay quarterly, the first payment is due April 15.
- Business returns checked. Calendar-year partnerships and S corporations usually file by March 15.
For the full list of forms, see our tax documents checklist.
Make a March budget
March has 31 days and five Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so count your paydays carefully:
- List every paycheck and the day it lands.
- Write each fixed bill (rent, power, phone, insurance) in the box for its due date.
- Add the seasonal costs: spring break, Easter food and baskets, and spring sports fees.
- Set aside tax money if you expect to owe in April.
- Give an expected refund a job now, such as savings, a card balance or summer camp.
Prefer paper? The Budget Planner Printable ($5.99) gives you undated monthly pages, so March can start wherever you are. If you'd rather track bills on a screen, the Bill Tracker Spreadsheet ($4.99) lists every bill by due date and lights up anything due in 3 days or less.
Spring cleaning in March
Spring starts on Saturday, March 20, which makes the last two weekends of March a good time to start spring cleaning:
- Block out two Saturdays, such as March 20 and March 27, rather than one marathon day.
- Start high, finish low: dust vents and shelves before you mop.
- Swap winter coats and boots for spring gear and donate what no one wore.
- Do the deep jobs before Easter guests arrive: the oven, the fridge and the guest bath.
To keep it going after March, the Cleaning Schedule ($4.49) splits chores into daily, weekly, monthly and seasonal lists and includes a chore chart for the family. Our spring cleaning checklist breaks it down room by room.
March 2027 week by week
| Week | Dates | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | March 1 to 7 | Set the March budget; gather tax forms. |
| Week 2 | March 8 to 14 | Prep for the time change; clocks forward Sunday the 14th. |
| Week 3 | March 15 to 21 | Business returns on the 15th; St. Patrick's Day on the 17th; spring starts on the 20th. |
| Week 4 | March 22 to 28 | Good Friday on the 26th; Easter Sunday on the 28th. |
| Week 5 | March 29 to 31 | Review March; plan April and Tax Day. |
Weeks in this table start on Monday, like page 2 of the PDF.
Tips for keeping March on track
- Mark the fixed dates first: paydays, due dates, the time change and Easter.
- Color-code by person with one marker each.
- Hang it where everyone walks by, like the fridge or the back door.
- Spend ten minutes every Sunday reading the coming week aloud together.
As the oldest of three, I learned early that the person holding the calendar keeps everyone on time. If you want calendars, bills and household notes in one place, the Household Binder ($6.99) keeps family info, calendars, meals and bills together. Browse all our Printables.
