# Task statuses

> What each task status and priority means on the Tasks page, and how overdue tasks and reminders work.

Every task on the **Tasks** page has a **Status** and a **Priority**. You set both when you add a task with **Add Task**, and you can change them later by editing the task.

## Statuses

| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| **To Do** | The default for a new task. Work has not started. |
| **In Progress** | You are working on it. |
| **Completed** | The task is done. |
| **Blocked** | You cannot move forward until something else happens. |

Use the **Status** filter on the Tasks page to show one status at a time.

## Priorities

Tasks use **Low**, **Medium**, **High** and **Urgent**. The **Priority** filter works the same way as the status filter.

## Overdue tasks

A task is overdue when its **Due Date** has passed and it is not **Completed**. When you have any, a red banner at the top of the Tasks page shows how many, for example **2 Overdue Tasks**.

## Reminders

Each task can also be linked to a **Related Deal** and a **Related Project**, both optional. You receive reminders about tasks as the due date approaches and when a task becomes overdue, depending on your [notification settings](https://docs.reinvestorhub.ai/reference/your-account/notification-settings/).
