What’s Going On With This Tax Season (2025)?

Welcome to the 2025 tax season — and yes, it’s already been an interesting one! Whether you’re a returning client or visiting ABServicegroup.com for the first time, here's what you need to know:

Key Updates for This Tax Season

1. IRS Processing Delays Are Still a Thing
While the IRS continues to modernize, delays in refund processing — especially for those with Earned Income Credit (EITC), Child Tax Credit, or paper filings — remain common. We always recommend filing electronically and early.

2. 1099 Filers Are Under the Microscope
If you’re self-employed, gig working, or receive income via 1099-NEC, the IRS has increased scrutiny. Accurate bookkeeping, mileage tracking, and expense documentation are essential — and that’s where we come in!

3. Major Focus on Credits and Deductions
The standard deduction for Single filers is now $14,600, and even more for Head of Household or Married Filing Joint. But don't stop there — we help our clients uncover all the tax credits they deserve.

4. Refunds May Look Smaller
Some COVID-era benefits and enhanced credits are gone. Many taxpayers are noticing lower refunds — but we’ll ensure you receive everything you’re legally entitled to.

Who We're Helping This Season

• Self-employed clients and gig workers (1099 contractors, Uber, beauty professionals, etc.)
