Income Tax Filing Period Begins

The first day you can file your 2020 and 2021 taxes was January 24.

This is 17 days earlier than previous years.

Refunds were delayed last year for about 30 million people.

The IRS said to expect delays again this year.

To speed-up the process, you can file online.

Unemployment benefits are taxable, while stimulus checks are not. However, you need to report both.

The deadline to file is April 18, 2022.
