The IRS is urging individuals and businesses to file their tax returns electronically because those returns are usually processed automatically. While tax returns and payments are still expected to be filed during the shutdown, refunds won't be issued until operations return to normal, the IRS said. The IRS's walk-in taxpayer assistance centers are also closed, as well as the Taxpayer Advocate Service, which fields consumers complaints and offers free tax help. Tax audits weren't considered "Essential" services so they will be suspended until full operations return, according to the IRS contingency plan.
