โข The IRS is navigating โsignificant workforce reductionsโ
โข Only 21% of calls reached an IRS assistor during the 2026 filing season
โข Taxpayers waited an average of 45 minutes just to reach someone on the Installment Agreement/Balance Due line
Before calling the IRS, see if you can find the answer on your IRS Online Account or the "Where's My Refund" tool.
If you do have to call, make sure you have all of the relevant paperwork right in front of you (๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ต๐ข๐น ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐ฏ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐บ ๐๐๐ ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต๐ช๐ค๐ฆ๐ด ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ค๐ฆ๐ช๐ท๐ฆ๐ฅ, ๐๐๐/๐๐๐๐, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ค๐ถ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ด๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ค๐ช๐ง๐ช๐ค ๐ต๐ฐ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ฒ๐ถ๐ฆ๐ด๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ).
Plan to call later in the week. Wait times are typically shorter Wednesday through Friday now that filing season is over.
Your best option, though, is to ๐ฉ๐ข๐ท๐ฆ ๐ถ๐ด ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ค๐ข๐ญ๐ญ for you.
We have access to practitioner-only IRS support lines and can often get answers and responses much faster.

Your 2026 schedule is based on the payroll tax liability your business reported during an earlier four-quarter period, called the ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ฃ๐ข๐ค๐ฌ ๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ช๐ฐ๐ฅ. For businesses that file Form 941, it runs from July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025.
To check which schedule applies to you in 2026, add up Line 12 on your Forms 941 for:
โข Q3 and Q4 of 2024
โข Q1 and Q2 of 2025
If the total is $50,000 or less, youโre generally a monthly depositor. If itโs over $50,000, youโre a semiweekly depositor.
If your schedule changed and you kept depositing on the old one, you may have incurred failure-to-deposit penalties.
Unsure which schedule applies, or already facing a penalty? Message us. We can check your filings and deposits, then review whether penalty relief is available.

Yes, we can review a return youโve already filed, even if someone else prepared it, to check for deductions or credits you may have missed.
If we find something, we can amend your return to claim what was missed.
It wonโt apply in every situation. But if something looks off on one of your past returns, schedule an appointment and we can review it with you.
