The April 15, 2009 deadline for filing state and federal taxes is quickly approaching.

To find out if you are required to file taxes, or to find more information on what forms to use, please visit the website of the Internal Revenue Service, www.irs.gov.

 

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 brought with it many changes to the tax code and so many people may be eligible for certain tax credits for the first time.  Please visit the website to find the latest details on the tax provisions in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.

 

Once you file, you can track your refunds through “Where’s My Refund?” – another free service offered by the agency.  People without computer access can still use “Where’s My Refund?” by calling 1-800-829-1954.
