Some 1.4 million Americans are owed more than $1.5 billion in unclaimed refunds during that year. Typically, taxpayers have about three years to file the federal tax returns to claim a refund, or the money will go to the Treasury Department. The IRS estimated that people who should get refunds will, on average, receive about $861. The IRS wants to help taxpayers who are owed refunds but havent filed their 2016 tax returns yet, IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig said in a statement on July 1. Time is quickly running out for these taxpayers. Theres only a three-year window to claim these refunds, and the window closes on July 15. Old tax returns cannot be filed electronically, and they can only be paper-filed, the IRS said. There is no penalty for filing late if one is slated to receive a refund. However, individuals who have not filed their 2017 or 2018 tax returns may not receive their refund. And, according to the IRS, If you owe money to the IRS or a state tax agency or have unpaid child support or federal debts, your 2016 refund could be applied to those instead. Earlier this week, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said that the IRS will proceed to use the July 15 deadline for people to file their 2019 taxes.

(Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images) The federal tax filing and payment deadline had been extended to July 15 from April 15, due to the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic, although some states have different dates for their filing deadlines. People can still request a filing extension until Oct. 15. After consulting with various external stakeholders, we have decided to have taxpayers request an extension if more time is needed, Mnuchin said in a June 29 statement. I would encourage Americans to file their taxes as soon as possible, so those who are due refunds can receive them quickly. Rettig added that the IRS understands that those affected by the coronavirus may not be able to pay their balances in full by July 15, but we have many payment options to help taxpayers. The IRS previously reported that it has received 136.5 million individual income tax returns as of mid-June, suggesting that most Americans have already filed their taxes. Poster Comment: The Infernal Revenuers want to put their hand in your pocket and can go back quite a way. But for refunds they only give you three years to get it. I had two liens on me by IRS over where I lived when driving trucks. I had Lexington Law, credit repairs lawyers from Salt Lake City challenge them. IRS could not prove I owed the tax and were forced to withdraw the liens. My Credit Karma used to say "2" for Public Filings. Now it says "0". The proof is in the pudding.

Isaiah 10 24Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt... Exodus 5 Bricks and Straw 6And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying, 7Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves. 8And the tale of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay upon them; ye shall not diminish ought thereof: for they be idle; therefore they cry, saying, Let us go and sacrifice to our God. 9Let there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein; and let them not regard vain words. 10And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spake to the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will not give you straw. 11Go ye, get you straw where ye can find it: yet not ought of your work shall be diminished. 12So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble instead of straw. 13And the taskmasters hasted them, saying, Fulfil your works, your daily tasks, as when there was straw. 14And the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and demanded, Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and to day, as heretofore?....
