Filing Regulations
IRS regulations require paid tax preparers who expect to prepare and file 11 or more federal individual or trust tax returns to file them electronically. To comply with this requirement your return will be electronically filed this year. The benefits of e-filing include a secure way to file tax returns and it provides proof of acceptance that the IRS has accepted your return for processing. Contact this office if you prefer your return be filed on paper.
Beware of Email Scams
The IRS does not send out unsolicited emails requesting detailed personal information. Such authentic-looking emails are called “phishing” emails and responding may expose you to identity theft. If you receive such an email from the IRS, send a copy of the email to phishing@irs.gov.
Please do not respond to the email unless the email request you send to the IRS has been verified as legitimate. You may also contact our office regarding any correspondence, written or electronic, that you receive from the IRS.
