New York CNN —So far this tax season, the IRS has received more than 100 million income tax returns for 2022. If yours is among them, here are some last-minute tax-filing tips to keep in mind as the Tuesday, April 18 deadline approaches. But you may want to anyway if you think you are eligible for a refund thanks to, for instance, refundable tax credits such as the Earned Income Tax Credit. Proofread your return before submitting it: Do this whether you’re using tax software or working with a professional tax preparer. Note, however, that an extension to file is not an extension to pay.
