If you like to take care of your taxes right away each year, heads-up: The IRS has delayed the start of tax filing season to February 12th in 2021.
My husband Charlie is one of those file immediately once you get your W-2 kind of folks, while I ve always been more of a wait until the last minute, because I m a procrastinator and taxes are hard kind of people. Since we got married though, and now file jointly, he handles our filing and I get it now it means you get your tax return earlier (if you re getting one)!
This year though, we ll all have to wait a bit. As Fox 17 reports, the IRS says it will begin accepting and processing 2020 tax year returns on Feb. 12, 2021 That process is usually initiated in late January.
