MADISON, WI (WHBL) — As Wisconsin’s tax season has just entered its fourth week, the Department of Revenue reports that over one million tax filers have submitted their returns. That’s about one-third of the expected total.
To date, more than 700,000 refunds have been issued, averaging $720 each.
Those who have yet to file may choose to use the free Wisconsin E-file online tool to file their returns, while many others will use third-party software.
You’re encouraged to file as soon as possible to reduce the chance of identity theft or tax fraud, plus you’ll likely get your refund faster if you have one coming. Those who owe taxes may file now and wait until the April 15th deadline to pay.
You can access the Wisconsin Department of Revenue website and E-file tool here.
