This article details the new tax law changes for 2025, including the introduction of Form 1099-K for online marketplace income and the traditional tax filing deadline of April 15th. It also provides information on refund timelines and potential delays.
With 2025 underway, Americans will soon receive their W-2 forms to begin filing their tax returns for the previous year. The new year also brings new changes to the tax code for 2025 that will impact filing as millions wonder when they need to file their taxes by. The IRS has not yet announced when tax return filing will begin, though typically that date occurs at the end of January.
Prior to that date, the IRS will open up their tax software for the year to allow taxpayers to begin preparing their returns, and the agency has also published a list of tips to help. According to the IRS, taxes will be due on their traditional date of April 15 this year, with no holidays to interfere with that date. Taxpayers who are eligible for refunds typically receive them within 21 days of filing if they use direct deposit, though it can take up to eight weeks for those who file with paper returns. There are several things that can delay refunds however, including items that require additional review by the IRS.

One big change coming in 2025 will be the issuance of a form called Form 1099-K for taxpayers who received $5,000 or more through online marketplaces or payment apps like Venmo, Zelle, Google Wallet and other services. According to the IRS, all income received through such sites is taxable, whether or not it hits the $5,000 threshold, and taxpayers will need to report that income whether or not they received the form
