Tax Refunds Could Be Delayed Because of Last Minute Fiscal Cliff Deal

Posted: Updated:
WASHINGTON -

Your tax refund could be delayed because of the last minute fiscal cliff deal.

The problem is the IRS can't put out the 2012 tax forms until the agency knows what the tax policy is.

Because Congress didn't get the deal done until January 1st, the IRS has some scrambling to do.

The agency must re-program its systems and issue tax forms based on the revised laws.

That could delay the start of the tax filing season.
