WASHINGTON DC (February 27, 2019) —
Mr President,
We’re now in the fifth week of the tax filing season.
Based on all reports from the IRS, the filing season is running smoothly.
All systems are operating as expected, returns are being processed, and refunds are being sent out without any major complications.
According to Commissioner Rettig, the IRS has even set a couple of internal records for the speed at which they have processed returns.
