“Like last year, we encourage taxpayers to file electronically and to request a refund, if you have one coming, via direct deposit,” said Craig Burns, tax commissioner.
It takes up to two weeks to process an electronically-filed return and up to eight weeks to process a paper return, Burns said.
To be eligible for Virginia’s one-time income tax rebate of $250 for single filers and $500 for married couples filing jointly, taxpayers must file by the Nov. 1 extension deadline, according to a news release from the Virginia Department of Taxation.
Tips from Virginia Tax
- If your income was $73,000 or less in 2021, you’re eligible to file your taxes for free.
- If you do need to make a payment, you have several easy-to-use options available including online, directly from your bank account; check or money order; and credit or debit card, both of which incur an additional fee.
- For secure, online self-service you can create and log onto an online individual account. This allows you to track your return or refund.
