The IRS has issued a final notice, and time is running out for taxpayers to claim their 2019 tax refunds. If you’re owed money from the government, you must act quickly and apply within the next six days.
“The final window closes on July 17 for taxpayers who didn’t file a tax return for 2019 to claim their refund,” warns IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel.

The IRS is sounding the alarm, stating that the deadline is rapidly approaching. They are urging nearly 1.5 million taxpayers across the United States to file their tax return for the 2019 tax year by July 17. And here’s the best part: the estimated median refund is a whopping $893!
But that’s not all. Some taxpayers may also qualify for the earned income tax credit (EITC), a fantastic break for low- and moderate-income workers. If you qualify, you could earn up to a maximum of $6,557.
To be eligible for the EITC, single individuals without qualifying children must have an income below $15,570. For single individuals with one qualifying child, the income limit is $41,094. If you’re married or filing jointly with one child, the limit is $46,884. For more detailed guidelines and income limits, visit the IRS webpage.
Now, here’s the important part: if you don’t file your tax return within three years, the Treasury usually keeps your refund. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the deadline for tax year 2019 has been extended. You now have until July 17, 2023, to claim your refund.
Don’t wait any longer! Obtain the key 2019 tax documents you need for your filing. You can request copies from your employer or bank, or order an income transcript through the IRS government website. The IRS also offers a convenient Get Transcript Online tool to order a free wage and income transcript.
According to the IRS, California and Texas have the highest estimated number of people who may have unclaimed refunds. In each state, over 100,000 individuals could be entitled to a tax refund.
So, what are you waiting for? Time is running out. Claim your 2019 tax refund now!
