Time is Running Out to File for Tax Year and Still Get Unclaimed Refunds | Tax Tip 2022-51

In 2018, over a million taxpayers didn’t file their federal return, leaving $1.5 billion in unclaimed refund money. It’s not too late for people to file and get their refund, but the deadline is soon.

Taxpayers have until April 18, 2022, to file their 2018 return and get their refund.

If a taxpayer doesn’t file their return, they usually have three years to file and claim their tax refund. If they don’t file within three years, the money becomes the property of the U.S. Treasury.
