[1] When comparing the tax filings as of Jan. 31, 2015 and the same time last year it must be remembered that the 2014 filing season began ten days later ¡ª Jan. 30, 2014 ¡ª because the process for updating IRS systems saw significant delays in October 2013 as a result of the 16-day federal government closure.
