EARLY TO FILE. EARLY TO SMILE.

Filing your taxes early. Key dates & benefits for 2025.

Filing your 2024 taxes early in 2025 can mean getting your refund as soon as possible while avoiding long lines and late penalties. But there are even more great reasons to file early. Tax Pros are here to help!

Stay ahead of Tax Day, April 15, 2025

This is the final date your taxes are due, unless you’ve filed an extension before this date. But there are many benefits to filing early, well before the April deadline and as soon as the IRS begins accepting tax returns in January.

Better protection against ID theft & fraud

Filing taxes early can help protect you and your family against identity theft and fraud, by locking down your personal info sooner.

Get your tax refund sooner

Filing taxes early can mean a faster process time by the IRS, which means your tax refund could arrive sooner than if you’d waited until the last day to file.

More time for payment & organization

If you owe the IRS tax money, filing early gives you more time to prepare your payment or choose a payment plan, before it’s due on April 15.
