More and more Americans have chosen e-file, which lets them electronically file an accurate tax return or get an extension of time to file without sending any paper to the Internal Revenue Service. The 2006 filing season set a series of records, highlighted by 73 million tax returns being filed electronically this year and home computer usage jumping 18 percent.
“We saw a surge of e-filing at the end of the tax season, particularly with people using software on home computers. Compared to recent years, we had much more e-filing in the weeks leading up to the deadline, signaling that more balance due filers are embracing this service,” said IRS Commissioner Mark W. Everson. “Overall, we received more tax returns electronically this year than the number of paper returns we processed for the entire United States in 1966. E-file is changing the way the nation does taxes.”
