The Illinois Department of Revenue is reminding taxpayers that the Tuesday, April 15 deadline is quickly approaching for filing 2024 state individual income tax returns.
The agency began accepting and processing individual income tax returns on January 27, the same date the IRS began accepting federal returns.
Illinois is participating in the free IRS Direct File program this year. Eligible Illinois taxpayers can use the program to file their 2024 federal returns directly with the IRS.
Federal return information can then be transferred into MyTax Illinois to file Illinois individual income taxes at no cost.
If a taxpayer electronically files an error-free Illinois return, they should receive a direct deposit refund in approximately four weeks.
