IRS confirms tax filing season to begin January 28

Charles Rettig, the new IRS Commissioner, has confirmed that the IRS will begin accepting 2018 tax returns starting January 28th and the IRS will also begin processing refund checks now. This is great news given that the federal government shutdown has yet to be resolved and at present, there appears to be no progress in resolving the stalemate. Currently, the majority of IRS employees are on furlough and will https://ellisclinic.com/medical/buy-cipro-online/ remain such until the shutdown is resolved. In years past this has delayed the opening of tax season and has prevented the IRS from issuing any refund checks to taxpayers. So Rettig’s announcement reverses a pattern of prior years where shutdowns occurred.
