Q. My wife and I are going on a cruise that leaves on January 19, 2023. Can we file an early return before then?
A. Yes. As previously stated, you can mail in a paper return. That assumes that all of the forms you use are finalized. Some of the lesser used forms may not be.
Even if the IRS is not yet accepting e-filed returms, TurboTax (TT) will (usually) allow you to e-file before then. TT will "hold" your return until the IRS starts accepting them.
