E-File Returns Running At Record Pace
The Internal Revenue Service announced today that taxpayers are continuing to electronically file their tax returns at a record pace, up almost 6 percent from the same period last year.
“Taxpayers can rely on e-file as a safe, accurate way to quickly finish their taxes and get a refund,” said IRS Commissioner Mark W. Everson. “We encourage people to consider e-file and Free File as the tax deadline approaches. For those who haven’t filed, they should make sure to request the telephone excise tax refund if they are eligible.”
According to the new filing season statistics for the week ending March 23, 2007, one of the biggest areas of growth is in returns electronically filed from home. Self-prepared e-filed returns have grown more than 8 percent from last year. E-filed returns from tax professionals have climbed almost 5 percent.
So far this tax filing season, almost 72 percent of all returns have been e-filed, compared to 68 percent for the same period last year. As of last Friday, 29 percent of e-filed returns were filed by people using their home computers, up from 28 percent of e-filed returns for the same period last year. Read more at irs.gov.
