If you’re the type to file your taxes early, this may not be your year.

The Internal Revenue Service is asking Illinois taxpayers to hold off on filing taxes until the agency gets more clarity on tax relief payments that went out last year.

Most Illinois taxpayers received a rebate last year in an effort by the state to provide some relief from inflation.

But the IRS is trying to determine if those rebates count as taxable income for your federal return.

The request to delay filing could affect taxpayers in up to 19 states that offered similar rebates last year.
