Mandate for e-filing individual returns

Effective January 1, 2012, preparers who expect to file 11 or more federal Individual or Trust tax returns during the year need to use the IRS e-file. The rules require that members of firms must calculate the number of returns in the aggregate that they reasonably expect to file as a firm. If that number is 11 or more, then all members of the firm must electronically file the returns prepared. This is true even if a firm member prepares fewer than the threshold on an individual basis.
Go to the IRS website for more information and instructions on what to do if a client chooses to file on paper.
