IRS Announces 2022 Tax Filing Start Date
Ashlea Ebeling Senior Contributor
The Internal Revenue Service announced today that the 2022 tax filing season will open on Monday, January 24th, 2022. That’s when the IRS will start accepting federal income tax returns for the 2021 tax year whether you file electronically or on paper. It’s the third coronavirus pandemic tax filing season, and again, that’s expected to cause complexities in filing.
"The pandemic continues to create challenges, but the IRS reminds people there are important steps they can take to help ensure their tax return and refund don’t face processing delays. Filing electronically with direct deposit and avoiding a paper tax return is more important than ever this year,” said IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig. “And we urge extra attention to those who received an Economic Impact Payment or an advance Child Tax Credit last year. People should make sure they report the correct amount on their tax return to avoid delays.”
