Tax season: Vt. to start accepting tax returns

BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - The state of Vermont will start accepting tax returns on January 23.

That’s true for the IRS and Vermont for personal income tax returns for the tax year 2022.

Vermont Tax Commissioner Craig Bolio says filing electronically is best. It helps them process claims more quickly and you get your refunds faster. He adds that there is a long list of additional tax credits and deductions this year for Vermonters.

“There’s a lot new this year and folks should be on the lookout for that. a lot of expanded credits and deductions and new credits part of Act 138 -- a tax reduction package the Legislature passed and the governor signed,” Bolio said.

Because April 15th falls on a Saturday, you actually have until April 18th to file.
