Del. Tax Season Begins; State Filing Deadline Is May 2nd
Tax season is underway in The First State.
The Delaware Division of Revenue began processing 2021 individual income tax returns Monday. There was a delay due to programming that was required under state legislation that exempts Unemployment Insurance payments from Delaware Income Tax in 2021.
Citizens are encouraged to file online at 聽de.gov/filetax or through other electronic filing programs and to request direct deposit.
The Delaware Division of Revenue also would like taxpayers to know:
“Taxpayers should be aware that Delaware does not maintain reciprocity agreements with other states. Therefore, it is important that anyone who is not a Delaware resident, but who has worked in Delaware, understands that they must file a Delaware tax return. Delaware Residents who work out-of-state are required to file returns with Delaware in addition to the state where they worked. By law, Delaware employees should receive their W-2 employment forms by January 31, 2022 for any job worked during the 2021 calendar year. Those who haven鈥檛 received a W-2 by January 31st should contact their employer.“
