Agcy. with many returns crossword clue

45 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 1, 2026 · 3 letters

Answer
IRS
IRS (3 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Agcy. with many returns” is IRS. It appears as 45 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 1, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Perfunctory Performance” by Lynn Lempel, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 9, column 15 of the 15×15 grid.

A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with I and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
