UVA Community Credit Union offers two different tax preparation services to simplify the process of tax filing.
Tax Refund Direct Deposit Information
The IRS makes it easy for you to direct deposit your tax refund into your credit union savings or checking account when filing. Direct deposit is safer, easier and faster than having a check sent by postal mail. NEVER direct your tax refund to someone else's account.
To utilize direct deposit, on the refund portion of your tax return:
Beginning in 2017, the IRS holds refunds on tax returns claiming the Earned Income Tax Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit until mid-February. Under the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act, the IRS must hold the entire refund – even the portion not associated with the EITC and ACTC – until at least February 15. The IRS cautions taxpayers that these refunds may not arrive in bank accounts or on debit cards until late February (assuming there are no processing issues with the tax return and the taxpayer chose direct deposit). Through holding refunds the IRS has more time to detect and prevent fraud, to protect legitimate taxpayers.
