If interest, see additional services the IRS is not supporting.

no paper?

Good. Then they won’t receive and read the nasty letter I sent them.

As if I’d have such courage :)

I say we flood them with paper returns. Make these parasites work for a change.

File the return as the law allows, by paper. Don’t owe any tax? No problem. If you do, and you pay— can assure you your check will be handled.

NOT going to be forced into the entirely unstable electronic security of e-filing. Period.

Keep a notarized copy with mailing date stamp. And mail it by USPS. Legally binding.

Always file paper.

When I was a kid, you filed taxes with a punch card included with a paper return.

My dad used to get a razor blade and slice an imperceptible slice off the end of the card.

Just wonderful. I tried to efile this year but the IRS wouldn't accept it. Tried every bit of advice around, but no go. Finally gave up and mailed it on Mar 13.

The refund has not arrived yet and the IRS "Where's My Refund" web site cannot find the status of my return. Maybe it will show up someday. :-(

Dutifully electronically filed my 2019 return on 3/28 for a tax refund, especially in light that my bank account changed since 2018.....was immediately accepted by the IRS but not processed...... so my Covid check was sent to my old account which was closed..... they are now resending it to my old account on 4/29 again.....
I can’t update my account info with them on the new system since I filed a return per their website.....
So I’m screwed as far as money is concerned....
Geez......

Well...I turned my stuff in on April 15th....

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.

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.
