IRS e-File Begins on January 23, 2023

KEY 2023 DATES
 
January 23: IRS begins accepting and processing individual 2022 tax returns.
 
February 28: Refunds including Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and/or Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC) deposited into taxpayers’ bank accounts or on debit cards for most taxpayers who e-filed returns with a direct deposit selection prior to mid-February and have no processing issues.
 
The delay in issuing EITC/ACTC related refunds helps the IRS reduce the number of fraudulent refunds issued.

October 16: Tax deadline to file a 2022 return for those with extensions.
