The Internal Revenue Service begun accepting returns January 24th, 2014.
We have received hundreds of reports that the I.R.S. has been accepting tax returns before January 31st, 2014. It seems that they have started accepting select few income tax returns on January 24th 2014. We contacted the I.R.S. on that day and were told that to help with the case load, they have accepted some returns early. They plan is to accept returns all next week that meet very strict rules. We have adjusted our 2014 IRS E-File Cycle Chart to match with the reports that we have received.
Please comment on here when you were accepted, so that we can keep see if they do a pay out on January 29th. This would be in line with 2012 and 2011 tax returns.
From Hot Springs Tax Services: “We have had several clients who filed within the last two weeks have their Federal Tax Returns accepted by the I.R.S. We have received news from the IRS that first payout date will be February 5th still. The early acceptance just means that they will process it before returns that come in a later date. Just a reminder, there are no guarantees when it comes to the I.R.S. We also have had several reports of people receiving their 2013 state income tax return in. This has come from several states. We have had two of our clients report receiving theirs in Arkansas.”
From the I.R.S. Where’s My Refund website:
“We have received your tax return and it is being processed.
You should get your refund within 21 days from the date we received your tax return.”

Mine was accepted on the 25th… whats next for direct deposit receivers???
Drew Penn says:
Most likely the IRS will do a direct deposit payout on January 29th, 2014, if not then you will be waiting until the first “official” payout date of February 5th 2014 per the Tax Refund Schedule.

So if ours have been accepted this early, does that mean we will get a direct deposit on the 5th according to the IRS payment schedule?

Deb Hartz says:
I was told that although my return was accepted by the IRS, they would not be processing any until Janaya 31.
Andrew Pennington says:
Kia, that should be the case. I would keep an eye on the IRS Where's My Refund webpage though.

Andrew Pennington says:
Sandy, accepted usually means that it means the standards of the IRS. (All correct SS#s, Names, Forms, Etc.) They will still go through your return before assigning a pay out date. This can be held up several days.
Andrew Pennington says:
Deb, were you told by the IRS? I think we are all playing the waiting game to see when they show the first expected payout right now.
Andrew Pennington says:
Kia, I would say that the 5th or soon is a safe expectation at this point.
Deb Hartz says:
yes, by the irs

Thank God I filed early. Started the process on Jan 24th, but got rejected. Found my error and what I thought was another, but got rejected a second time, called the IRS and found out someone had been using my info to illegally file in another state in 2011 &2012, in the two years I didn't file while on disability. Thankfully it was fixed with the IRS and I resubmitted yesterday and was immediately accepted!!!
