The IRS May Owe You.

Recover COVID-Era Penalties Before the July 10 Deadline.

During COVID, the IRS declared a nationwide disaster that legally extended filing deadlines. However, its automated systems continued to assess late-filing and late-payment penalties, along with interest.

Two federal courts have since ruled that the IRS lacked the legal authority to impose those charges, and the agency has already refunded $1.2 billion to some affected taxpayers. Still, millions more may be eligible but have not yet received refunds.

In this session, HRlogics will walk through what happened, who qualifies, and how to file a formal claim before the July 10, 2026 deadline expires.

What You'll Learn

We will cover the two court rulings driving this, the step-by-step process to check your eligibility, and what to expect from start to finish. 

  • Why the IRS May Owe You a Refund: Two federal court rulings, Abdo v. Commissioner (2024) and Kwong v. United States (2025), found that the IRS had no legal authority to charge penalties and interest during an active disaster declaration. We will explain what that means for your 2020 through 2023 tax returns and how to determine if you were affected.

  • How to Check Your Eligibility and File a Claim: We will walk through the 3-step process: enter your basic information, authorize a view-only scan of your IRS transcripts, and receive your estimated refund amount. No sensitive financial data is needed upfront, and the entire check takes about 2 minutes.

  • The Deadline You Cannot Miss: The filing window to submit a formal claim closes on July 10, 2026. Once that date passes, you will lose the ability to recover these refunds. We will cover what you need to do before then and how the No Win, No Fee model works, so there is zero financial risk to you.
