Some of you may think it’s too early, but nevertheless, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has announced when the 2025 tax season officially starts. And, too, when people can expect to get their refunds. According to an IRS press release, people can begin filing their taxes on Monday, Jan. 27.

The Internal Revenue Service announced that the tax season will kick off Jan. 27, 2025 — not only that, but this tax season will also feature more tools to help taxpayers.
