Treasury Department Reminder, Thanks!

US TSYS
Another sign COVID pandemic is winding down?
  • Early in the pandemic, 2019 tax reporting deadlines were delayed to July 15, 2020. Last year's tax returns for 2020 were delayed to May 17, 2021.
  • Back to normal: US Tsy Dept issued helpful reminder today: the Internal Revenue Service 2021 tax reporting season begins January 24, ending Monday, April 18.
    • The January 24 start date for individual tax return filers will allow the IRS time over the course of the coming weeks to do additional programming and testing that is critical to ensure that IRS systems will run smoothly this filing season and will help taxpayers claim the remainder of their Child Tax Credit and remaining stimulus funds in a timely manner when filing their 2021 returns.
    • The IRS anticipates that most taxpayers will receive their refund within 21 days of when they file electronically, barring any issues with processing their tax return. The IRS urges electronic filing to avoid delays in processing and to utilize information letters provided by the agency when filing their returns to avoid errors that can lead to delays.
