INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Department of Revenue will start accepting filings for 2021 individual income tax returns on Monday, Jan. 24, in concert with the Internal Revenue Service. Taxpayers will have until Monday, Apr. 18, 2022, to file both their state and federal 2021 tax returns and pay any taxes owed.
The revenue department encourages customers not to file their state tax returns prior to Jan. 24 or before they have gathered all necessary documentation. Attempting to file without all documents can delay the process and ultimately postpone any refund a customer may receive. For more information on what documents are needed to file an individual income tax return, visit dor.in.gov.
The revenue department also encourages customers to utilize electronic filing, online payment and direct deposit to significantly improve the quality and speed of return and refund processing.
