Today the IRS announced Monday, January 29, 2024 as the beginning of the nation’s 2023 tax season when the agency will begin accepting and processing 2023 tax year returns. Don’t wait to file. File today with TurboTax, and be first in line for your tax refund! Although the IRS has not yet begun accepting e-filed tax returns, TurboTax securely holds your completed taxes, transmits them to the IRS, and state when they open for e-file.
Whether you want to do your taxes yourself, get help along the way, or just fully hand over your taxes to a tax expert, TurboTax is ready to help you get your biggest refund.
Last year, the average tax refund was more than $3,000. We know that your tax refund can make a big difference in your financial life, whether you need to pay down debt or save for something special.
Combined with e-file, direct deposit is the fastest way to get your tax refund. Overall, the IRS anticipates nine out of 10 taxpayers will receive their refund within 21 days or less when they file electronically with direct deposit if there are no issues with their tax return.
The IRS encourages all taxpayers to file as soon as possible and reminds you to keep copies of your prior-year tax returns for at least three years. The filing deadline to submit 2023 tax returns is April 15, 2024. Individuals who live in Maine and Massachusetts have until April 17, 2024, because April 15 is Patriots Day and April 16 is emancipation day. C-Corps filing deadline is April 15, 2024 and partnerships and S-Corps filing deadlines are March 15, 2024.
