The IRS is now accepting tax returns as the annual tax filing season is underway. Here are some things for taxpayers to consider as they are filing: Deadline is: Tuesday, April 17, 2018 is the deadline to file 2017 returns and pay any taxes due.
Choosing e-file and direct deposit is the fastest and safest way to file an accurate income tax return and receive a refund.
Families with incomes of $66,000 or less can file for free. They can do so using brand name software through the IRS Free File program.
People who earned more than $66,000 may use Free File Fillable Forms.
First refund date: By law, the IRS cannot issue some refunds before mid-February. These refunds are for tax returns that claim the Earned Income Tax Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit. The IRS expects the earliest refunds related to EITC and ACTC to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or on debit cards starting on Feb. 27, 2018.
Check your refund status: The best way for taxpayers to check the status of a refund is to use “Where's My Refund?” on IRS.gov or the IRS2Go mobile app.
