Paper Tax Returns: All taxpayers should file electronically through their tax preparer, tax software provider or IRS Free File if possible. The IRS is not currently able to process individual paper tax returns. ......
Practitioner Priority Service (PPS): Due to staff limitations the Practitioner Priority Service line is temporarily closed until further notice. The IRS is unable to process Centralized Authorization File (CAF) requests at this time.
My 2016 returns was by paper. My accountant, believe it or not, was offline (his wifi sucks) and he apologized for being offline with EFILE. He made copies for me and paid for Priority Mail on the spot. .
Texas mails our paper returns and checks to an IRS center in Charlotte NC, that used to be manned by the old NCNB, now BofA after the merger.
Very common - contract a bank to process paper checks and handle tax law themselves.
Thanks
I won't be getting any $$ back...so I could careless.
I wonder how fast they will cash my checks...?
I'd guess...that will be a priority,,at the IRS.
Have you had a bad experience with efiling? Mine always go through and I get aconfirmation in about six hours using Turbo Tax.
How fast can you blink? How fast is superman? How fast is the speed of light in a vacuum?
If the IRS is incapable of processing their own printed, and circulated via boxes of forms and instructions, or through the electronic galactic bit bucket, why the heck should we go through the clerical, legal, and math er matical clusterbucks?
I would love to have used the IRS e-file but I didn’t meet the income guideline. I’m not paying a tax service, as simple as my return is.
Back when they were allowed (1990s), my tax man used a very low resolution 9 pin dot matrix printer with fan fold paper to submit my return. Make them work for it.
My 82 year old mother has neither a computer nor an Internet connection. She is not alone.
See post 13 and many others. Then look up the data breach at the Office of Personnel Management... the idiot woman obamaumao kept on. Then see the Equifax breach— now determined and announced Atty. Gen. Barr to have been Chinese Communist cyber-attack. If you think all of these could not be cross-compiled by these chi-com criminals- think again.
