Can I file 2024 taxes if 2023 return is still processing?
My 2023 tax return still hasnt been processed yet and is showing as still being reviewed. Getting worried since tax season is coming up again. Can I file my 2024 taxes while my 2023 return is still pending? Anyone else in this situation?

Yes, you can absolutely file your 2024 taxes even if your 2023 return is still processing. The IRS processes each tax year separately. Just make sure you're using the exact numbers from what you filed for 2023, not what you think it might be adjusted to. The pending status of a prior year return doesn't prevent you from filing current year taxes.

•If the 2023 numbers change, the IRS will adjust accordingly. You won't need to amend your 2024 return for that.

Hey guys, if you're trying to figure out whats going on with your return, check out taxr.ai - its this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats happening and when youll get paid. Only costs a buck. Way better than playing detective with these confusing transcripts lol https://taxr.ai

Pro tip: make sure to keep copies of EVERYTHING you file. The IRS loves to say they never got stuff 🙄

I'm in the exact same situation! Filed my 2023 return in April and it's still showing "being processed" on Where's My Refund. Really stressing about whether I should file 2024 on time or wait. Thanks for asking this question - the answers here are super helpful! 🙏

•Same here! Filed in March 2023 and still waiting. At least we know we can file 2024 on time without any issues. This whole situation is so frustrating but glad we're not alone in this 😤
