The IRS<\/strong> has unveiled that approximately 1,142,000 taxpayers<\/strong> may still have not claimed their 2021 tax refund<\/strong>. An unclaimed refund means you may be missing out on an important payment<\/strong> from the Agency.<\/p>\n

The Internal Revenue Service<\/strong> estimates that the median refund<\/strong> amount is about $781<\/strong> for tax year 2021. Therefore, half of the refunds are lower and the other half higher. In total, the Agency may owe $1 billion in refunds. Bear in mind that this does not include any other tax credits you may be eligible for like the Recovery Rebate Credit, EITC or ACTC.<\/p>\n

IRS confirms top 3<\/h2>\n

California<\/strong> is the State that may have more taxpayers with unclaimed tax refunds from 2021. The figure that the IRS<\/strong> has given is much higher than in most States. A total of 116,300<\/strong> citizens have unclaimed refunds in California.<\/p>\n

The median refund amount is about $600 in California<\/strong>. Therefore, you may be missing out on a 2021 tax refund if you have not filed your return yet. Texas<\/strong> is the second State with the most unclaimed refunds in the United States.<\/p>\n

Texas<\/strong> has a total of 102,200<\/strong> unclaimed refunds and the median refund could be about $810<\/strong>. In third place, the IRS has announced that it is New York<\/strong>. A total of 73,000 taxpayers may still be eligible for a 2021 refund. The median refund is $995<\/strong> so it is a lot more than in Texas and California.<\/p>\n

In the third place is Rhode Island<\/strong>. The median refund in Rhode Island is $946<\/strong>. The thing is fewer people qualify for a 2021 tax refund in this State. A total of 3,600 are missing out on this check or direct deposit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
