📣 Don’t Miss This Tax Relief Opportunity — Time Is Running Out
If you paid late-filing and late-payment IRS penalties and interest during the COVID-19 Federally Declared Disaster, you may still have a chance to get that money back 💰—but the window is closing fast.
Under IRC Section 7508A, if penalties were assessed during periods that should have been postponed, you may be eligible for a refund or abatement.
👉 To claim it, taxpayers can file Form 843 (Claim for Refund and Request for Abatement).
⚠️ Important reminder: The IRS penalty relief tied to the COVID emergency designation effectively ended on July 10, 2023 which means the statute of limitations for filing refund claims ends July 10, 2026!
âś… What to do now:
1. Review your tax returns for years 2019–2022 (filed in years 2020-2023) for penalties and interest
2. Determine whether Section 7508A postponement relief applies
3. Call Devereux & Company to help you file Form 843 as soon as possible if you qualify!!
đź’ˇ Bottom line: Taxpayers who paid penalties and interest between January 20, 2020, and July 10, 2023, may be eligible for a refund under recent court rulings interpreting IRC Section 7508A. You must file a claim using IRS Form 843 by July 10, 2026, to preserve your right to relief while the government appeals the decision.
