Two thoughts:
- New York State has fewer tax returns to process than the IRS.
- If your return contains the earned income credit (EIC) or Additional Child Tax Credit, the PATH Act prohibits the IRS from issuing refunds before mid-February.
The IRS expects the
earliest EITC/ACTC related refunds to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or
debit cards starting February 27, 2019, if these taxpayers chose direct deposit
and there are no other issues with their tax return.
