The IRS has announced that it will be sending special payments of up to $1,400 to approximately 1 million taxpayers who did not claim the 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit. The agency is also encouraging non-filers to take action before the approaching deadline to claim these credits. Additionally, the IRS has introduced measures to process tax refunds faster for those who complete a specific form, aiming to help taxpayers receive their refunds in record time. Furthermore, details about various IRS refund programs indicate eligibility for payments, including a $1,500 refund program and potential refunds up to $6,600 anticipated in December.
