The Idaho State Tax Commission starts processing 2022 Idaho individual income tax returns on Monday, January 23. The Internal Revenue Service begins processing federal returns the same day.
Tax officials say all Idaho tax returns go through fraud-detection reviews and accuracy checks. Before issuing a refund, the Tax Commission might send a letter to verify identity or to ask for more information. E-filing a return is the safest and easiest way to file. It’s also the quickest way to receive a refund. It takes seven to eight weeks to get an Idaho refund when you e-file versus 10 to 11 weeks when filing by paper.
Visit tax.idaho.gov to check the status of a refund, get tax forms, make payments, and find tax help. Tax filers can also get tax-related questions answered by calling toll free at (800) 972-7660.
The deadline to file 2022 income taxes is Tuesday, April 18.
