IRS Commissioner Rettig – OUT

October 31, 2022 by admin

Monday October 31, 2022 – Happy Halloween. The scary tale can be told – Commissioner Chuck Rettig is out at the IRS. There has been talk of his dismissal for some time. Afterall, he was appointed by Trump – another one of Trump’s appointment errors.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen announced the acting head of the IRS will be Douglas O’Donnell. O’Donnell is a 36-year employee of the IRS. So, he knows where the bodies are buried (Halloween reference).

Foreclosures On The Rise

May 23, 2022 by admin

Monday May 23, 2022 – Foreclosures have not been an issue since the pandemic. One of the first things Government did was to issue a Foreclosure Moratorium.

Last August the CDC moratoriums came to and end based on a United States Supreme Court ruling on the issue.. Some States (like Illinois) maintained a foreclosure moratorium thereafter – but no more!

“A total of 50,759 U.S. properties started the foreclosure process in the first quarter of 2022, up 67% from the previous quarter and up 188% from a year ago,” Chicago saw over 3,000 foreclosures in the first three months of the year.

Attorney Steven A. Leahy reviews the numbers and also talks about the tax implications of losing a home to foreclosure. Did you think the IRS wouldn’t be involved?

IRS Sets Date For 2022 Tax Season

January 11, 2022 by admin

Today, Monday January 10, 2022, the IRS has set the date of January 24, 2022 to officially open tax filing season, 19 days earlier than last year. That’s the first day the agency will start accepting and processing 2021 federal tax returns.

The IRS encouraged taxpayers to file electronically with direct deposit to receive their tax refunds as soon as possible. The IRS claims taxpayers should receive their refunds within 21 days of filing their return electronically if they use direct deposit and as long as there are no issues with the return.

Remember, the IRS offers a Free File program. That program will open Jan. 18 for taxpayers who made $73,000 or less in 2021. We will provide additional information on that program soon.

This year, your return is due by April 18, 2022 because Washington D.C. celebrates Emancipation Day on April 16th, can April 16th is a Saturday. Federal employees in Washington D.C. have the day off the closest week day when that happens – Friday April 15, 2022. That pushes the deadline to Monday April 18, 2022.

Attorney Steven A. Leahy will explain all of these dates on Today’s Tax Talk.
