Because the IRS does not even start processing e-filed returns until Jan 23, and that date could be delayed.

THe IRS has done a couple of "test pulls", and that may be what you heard about. I NEVER recommend e-filing early. If you do and your return is one of the "test pulls" they use to find problems in their processing system, I don't want my return to be the guinea pig that gets screwed up because they still haven't got their systems working right.
