CARBONDALE, Ill. (KFVS) - Itâs the start of Tax Filing Season and the pandemic has changed a lot of things including tax returns.
It has also prompted a lot of questions from filers.
Madison Mueller is a tax accountant in Carbondale with Janice Burns Payne and Associates LLC. She said stimulus payments you received in 2020 and even possibly in 2021 are not included in your taxable income.
She said to pay attention to the stimulus payment guidelines.
âHowever based on your 2020 income tax return you might be eligible to receive more if you were somebody who didnât receive the full payment,â said Mueller.
