How to Check If You’re Eligible
To determine if you qualify:
1. Review Your IRS Account
Log into your IRS account or request transcripts. Look for:
- Penalties charged between 2020 and 2023
- Interest on unpaid taxes
- Fees related to late filings or payments
2. Identify Key Charges
Focus on:
- Late filing penalties
- Late payment penalties
- Underpayment penalties
- Interest charges
3. Consult a Tax Professional
A tax advisor, CPA, or tax relief specialist can help determine:
- If you qualify under the new ruling
- Whether to file IRS Form 843 (Claim for Refund)
- The best strategy for maximizing your refund
- Will the IRS Actually Issue Refunds?
There’s still uncertainty.
- The IRS may appeal the court decision
- Not all claims will be approved
- Final outcomes depend on ongoing litigation
However, filing now could position you to benefit if the ruling stands.
