2025 Illinois Tax Filing Season Underway
(Springfield, IL) — The 2025 tax season is underway. The Illinois Department of Revenue began accepting 2024 state tax returns yesterday, the same day the IRS started accepting federal individual income tax returns. Illinois is participating in the IRS Direct File program this year. Eligible taxpayers will be able to use the program to electronically complete their 2024 federal tax returns for free. If a taxpayer electronically files an error-free Illinois return, they should receive a direct deposit refund in approximately four weeks. The tax filing deadline is Tuesday, April 15th.
