Virginia Department of Taxation
Governor Timothy M. Kaine announced that the Virginia Department of Taxation has issued nearly 100 percent of state income tax refunds, putting money in the pockets of Virginians as the state continues to emerge from economic challenges. Virginians have received more than 2.6 million refunds, totaling more than $1.6 billion. Virginia’s emphasis on electronic filing has also made processing the tremendous volume of returns much simpler, allowing for quicker issuance of refunds. Approximately 63 percent of returns were filed electronically, compared to 56 percent in 2008. This has allowed the Department of Taxation to issue 82 percent of refunds within 12 days, and 96 percent within 30 days.
