    IRS Refunds: when will taxpayers receive their money? por Pedro Flores - Grupo Your Contabilidade

    The Government has released the estimated timelines for this IRS campaign. Here is what taxpayers need to know to plan their refund.

    ~14 days
    Automatic IRS
    ~3.5 weeks
    Normal submission
    1 Apr → 30 Jun
    Submission deadline 2026

    Expanded Automatic IRS

    This year, the Automatic IRS covers around 2 million declarations (up from 1.7 million in 2024), now including young people up to 35 years old under the Youth IRS scheme.

    Two thirds still receive a refund

    Despite the Government having adjusted withholding tables to more closely match actual tax liability, the majority of declarations continue to generate a refund.

    Three withholding tables in 2025

    Due to mid-year tax changes, three distinct tables were in effect:

    • January to July - initial tables
    • August to September - interim tables
    • October to December - final adjusted tables

    Avoid the first and last day

    The Tax Portal experiences massive traffic spikes on April 1st and June 30th. The Secretary of State recommends submitting on intermediate days to avoid system failures.
