A Brief Overview of Depreciation. Depreciation is an income tax deduction that allows a taxpayer to recover the cost or other basis of certain property. It is an annual allowance for the wear and tear, deterioration, or obsolescence of the property.
How far back can you submit returns or amended returns and still get a refund? You can go back three years from the original deadline of the tax return to get a full refund. After three years, you will not be able to obtain a refund. It is important if changes are needed on an already filed return that these changes are made within the three year time frame.
1. Visit the IRS website. If you submitted your taxes electronically, you can get refund information up to 72 hours following the receipt of your return. If you mailed your taxes, refund information will be available within three to four weeks, though some will receive their refunds back much sooner.
