"The government expects to process refunds in phases, however, focusing first on more recent tariff payments. Any number of technical factors and procedural issues could delay an importer's application."
"In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court on Feb. 20 found that Trump usurped Congress' tax-setting role last April when he set new import tax rates on products from almost every other country."
"Customs and Border Protection said in court filings that over 330,000 importers paid a total of about $166 billion on over 53 million shipments."
A refund system for businesses that paid tariffs imposed without constitutional authority is set to launch. Importers can claim refunds via an online portal. Companies must submit declarations for goods on which they paid tariffs. Refunds will be processed in phases, starting with recent payments. The Supreme Court ruled that Trump overstepped his authority in imposing these tariffs. A judge determined that companies subjected to these tariffs are entitled to refunds. Not all imports are eligible for the initial phase of the refund system.
