The Tuesday after Presidents Day marks the single busiest day of the year
for telephone calls and visits to the Internal Revenue Service. Taxpayers can
find answers faster to most of their questions by using IRS.gov.
The IRS anticipates a high volume of calls today. At peak times, the IRS
expects to field thousands of calls per hour. Also, taxpayers are reminded that
they need an appointment to visit a Taxpayer Assistance Center.
Whether calling about refunds due, taxes owed, a tax law question,
requesting a tax form or inquiring about 2015 adjusted gross income, answers
can be found at IRS.gov.
Where’s
My Refund? has been updated for those refunds containing the Earned Income
Tax Credit and the Additional Child Tax Credit that had been held by law.
Barring other issues, taxpayers should see those refunds in their financial
accounts beginning the week of Feb. 27.
Just a reminder that “Where’s My Refund?” is updated once daily so checking
it multiple times per day will not produce new or different results. To use
“Where’s My Refund?”, taxpayers need their Social Security number or Individual
Taxpayer Identification Number, filing status (single, married filing jointly,
etc.) and the exact amount of the refund claimed.
