In the year 2025, the United States Government will not renew a large number of IRS worker contracts, which will mean that the remaining workers will have to take on their workload. Therefore, we will find that the whole annual tax process will be much slower than usual.
At least that is the theory, because at the moment there is nothing 100% confirmed about the delays. What is certain is that if the “trial” workers do not continue to work, it will mean real staff cuts in the IRS. These measures, proposed by the new presidency of Donald Trump, are intended to alleviate the country’s general economy.
A priori the news of optimizing the government’s resources may be a good sign, but if that means slowing down or delaying all bureaucratic processes it is possible that the president will find detractors throughout the country.
How will the IRS cuts affect my Tax Refund?
The truth is that those who have already sent their Tax Return to the IRS should have no problem getting their Tax Refund soon. But if we haven’t sent the documents yet, we could be in trouble. It all depends on how the government ends up focusing,
For now, the only thing we can do to prevent our Tax Refund from arriving too late is to send the documentation as soon as possible. This is the only way to ensure that we will get our money back as soon as possible.
If we have already sent the Tax Return, all we can do is wait. But if we haven’t done so yet, we should gather all our documents and send it as soon as we have everything ready.
Ways to speed up the IRS Tax Refund
In order to speed up the entire Tax Refund process, we need to bear several aspects in mind:
- Send all the documentation without forgetting anything.
- Check the documentation before sending it.
- Send all documentation to the IRS electronically.
- Activate Direct Deposit to get your Tax Refund as soon as possible.
Remember that if you send your Tax Return, the IRS must check that everything is in order and correct first. If you have made a mistake, there is still time to fix it, but if you take much longer to send the documentation, you could run into problems.
Once we have sent all the documentation to the IRS we will have to wait around 3 weeks for the money to appear in our bank account. There is no exact date for getting the money, but that is the approximate date in these cases.
