Tips for choosing a tax professional:
• Availability: Choose a preparer that’s available after filing season in case questions come up after filing.
• Service fees: Ask about the preparer’s service fees. Taxpayers should avoid tax return preparers who base their fees on a percentage of the refund.
• IRS e-file: Ensure their preparer offers IRS e-file. The IRS issues most refunds in fewer than 21 days for taxpayers who file electronically and choose direct deposit and file a complete and accurate return.
• Records and receipts: Good preparers ask to see these documents to complete the return accurately.
• Qualifications: Understand the preparer's credentials and qualifications. Check their history for complaints or disciplinary actions.
• Review before signing: Always review the tax return before signing it. Ask questions if something is unclear or appears incorrect. Never sign a blank or incomplete return.
• Accurate account information: Make sure any refund goes directly into the taxpayer's bank account – not into the preparer's bank account. Review the routing and bank account number on the completed return to confirm it's accurate.

The individual shutdown for tax year 2024 will begin on Friday, December 26, 2025 at 11:59 am EST.

In preparation for the 11:59 am IRS deadline, any returns transmitted after 11:45 am EST will receive a B ack. If you need to file after this time, you will need to either paper-file the return, or wait for the MeF system to resume operations.

This shutdown prevents e-filing of individual returns for all years.

Ack retrieval must be completed by 11:59 pm EST on 12/26/25. If you do not retrieve your acks by that time, you will have to wait until MeF opens for production in January 2026.
