Early tax filing is already underway but not without issue.
According to a notice on the Internal Revenue Service website, some tax payers will have to wait an extra week to get their returns.
The IRS released a statement reading in part, “as with the start of any tax season, there are system validations that occur requiring some fine-tuning of our systems.”
The IRS blames the delay on new fraud protection safeguards but says the majority of tax payers will not be effected by the delay.
