Tax update ✨⭐️💫🌟
Right now, the people getting refund dates are the ones who don’t have the PATH Act on their taxes.
The PATH Act mainly affects people in a lower tax bracket who get credits like the child tax credit or earned income credit. The IRS holds those refunds a little longer every year to double-check everything.
People in a higher tax bracket usually don’t get those credits, so their refunds move faster and they see dates sooner.
So if you don’t have a date yet, it doesn’t mean anything is wrong — it just means the IRS hasn’t released that group yet.
Everyone gets paid… just not at the same time 🙂
