New technology is bringing changes to how you get forms and instructions from the IRS. Reporter Dan Stork says those forms are no longer being mailed…
Effective last year, the Internal Revenue Service no longer mails paper income tax packages to taxpayers. In an article on www.irs.gov, the IRS said that in early October of 2010, it sent a postcard to individuals who filed paper returns the previous year and did not use a tax preparer or tax software. The information explained how to get the tax forms and instructions they need for filing their tax year 2010 return. The article said that the IRS took this step because of the continued growth in electronic filing and the availability of free options to taxpayers, as well as to help reduce costs. Forms are available online at irs.gov, or at IRS offices, and at participating libraries and post offices.
