Monday January 29, 2024 IRS Opens

The Internal Revenue Service has announced that Monday, Jan. 29, 2024, is the official start date of the nation’s 2024 tax season when the agency will begin accepting and processing 2023 tax returns. 

However, those receiving certain tax credits may not receive their refund until the end of February. "Under the federal Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act, the IRS cannot issue Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC) refunds before mid-February. Where’s My Refund? should show an updated status by February 17 for most early EITC/ACTC filers. The IRS expects most EITC/ACTC related refunds to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or on debit cards by February 27 if they chose direct deposit and there are no other issues with their tax return."
