🚨 Tax Refund Alert 🚨

The PATH Act hold has officially lifted for taxpayers who claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit. According to the IRS, many refunds are expected by March 2, and deposits are expected to start arriving next week. In previous years, some refunds have arrived earlier, but there is never a guarantee.

Please note, no deposits will be processed today. Be sure to watch the IRS website this week for updated deposit dates.

Also remember, filing your return in January does not automatically place you in the first batch of refunds or guarantee a specific deposit date. In fact, some taxpayers who file in early February may receive their refunds before those who filed in January.

Refunds can be delayed for several reasons, including errors, fraud filters, identity verification, or wage and dependent reviews. Most of the time, these delays are outside of your tax professional’s control and do not automatically mean there is an issue with your return.

Stay patient and continue checking for updates through the IRS website.

What you need to know about having a IP Pin

One of the number 1 reasons tax returns get rejected every year is because taxpayers forget their IP PIN.

The Internal Revenue Service has already started mailing IP PIN letters for the upcoming tax season.

If you, your spouse (if filing jointly), or your dependent has an IP PIN, make sure you keep it in a safe place.

My advice
Take a picture of it on your phone
Save it somewhere you won’t forget
And make sure you give it to your tax preparer

Here’s what you need to know:

👉 If you are required to have an IP PIN, you cannot e-file without it
👉 IP PINs are valid for 1 calendar year only
👉 You get a new IP PIN every year and last year’s PIN will not work

Lost your letter? No worries.

Once IRS maintenance is complete, you can retrieve your IP PIN online using the official IRS link below:

Save this post so you’re not scrambling later.

Find out how to retrieve your identity protection PIN (IP PIN) online or have it reissued by phone.
