For many people, their IRS tax refund is the biggest check they receive all year, the IRS says. In anticipation of your windfall, it’s wise to have a plan for how you’re going to use your windfall. Deciding how to spend, save or invest the money in advance can help stop the shopping impulse from getting the best of you.
Your refund is yours to use how you see fit and can be used to help pay for day-to-day expenses or invested for long-term financial stability.
