Critical Changes for 2025 Tax Season

New Requirements You Need to Know

⚠️ Federal Refund Checks Are Ending

Effective September 30, 2025: The IRS will stop issuing paper refund checks. If you currently receive your federal tax refund by check, you MUST provide bank account information for direct deposit when filing your return. Please note: This change affects federal refunds only—California and other states have not announced similar changes.

📮 USPS Postmark Changes

Effective December 24, 2025: The U.S. Postal Service now postmarks mail at regional distribution centers instead of local post offices. This means mail may receive a postmark 1–3 days later than when it was actually mailed. We strongly recommend electronic filing for all tax deadlines. If mailing is required, request a manual postmark at the counter or use certified mail.

✅ Automatic Protection Plus™ for All Clients

New this year: All of our clients will automatically receive Protection Plus™, providing tax audit defense and identity theft restoration support when you file your tax return with us. This added layer of protection gives you extra peace of mind should you ever receive a tax notice or need assistance resolving an issue in the future.
