A Message From the
Dear Taxpayer,
Commissioner
Every year, the IRS works hard to make the process of filing your taxes as
quick and easy as possible. Providing quality service is one of our top
priorities. It not only reduces the burden on you, but also helps you file an
accurate return right from the start.
The best place to get information from the IRS is our website, IRS.gov. In
addition to getting your tax questions answered, there’s also a very popular
feature, “Where’s My Refund?,” to track the progress of your refund. You can
also find informative videos to help you understand your tax obligations on
YouTube, at
I would like to bring to your attention a couple of items that could be of
help as you file and pay your taxes this year. A number of federal tax
incentives that were enacted in 2009 as part of the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act are still in effect for 2010. These include the American
Opportunity Credit and the expanded Earned Income Tax Credit. Make sure
you check to see if you qualify for these and other important deductions
and credits.
Remember that the fastest and easiest way to get your refund is to e-file
and use direct deposit. You could receive your refund in as little as 10 days
after filing, which can help you pay bills, make some important purchases
and maybe put some money aside for savings.
E-file has become so popular that seven out of 10 individual taxpayers
now e-file their return. It’s the first choice for about 100 million taxpayers
because it’s fast, safe, and accurate.
Taxpayers below a certain income level can qualify to use free tax
preparation software through the Free File program. Plus, everyone can
e-file for free using fillable forms available at IRS.gov. So, isn’t it time you
made the switch to e-file?
If you need any more information or have questions about taxes or tax
credits, please visit us at IRS.gov or call our toll-free number at
1-800-829-1040. We are here to help you.
Sincerely,
Douglas H. Shulman
The IRS Mission
Provide America’s taxpayers top quality service by helping them understand and meet their tax
responsibilities and by applying the tax law with integrity and fairness to all.
