A Message From the
Dear Taxpayer,
Commissioner
As we enter the 2012 tax filing season, the IRS is always looking to find
new and innovative ways to help you get your tax questions answered. The
newest is our smartphone application, IRS2Go, which can be downloaded
for free. You can do a number of things with this app, such as checking the
status of your tax refund or subscribing to tax tips.
We also continue to enhance our website, IRS.gov, which is the most
convenient way to get tax information. We also post videos on YouTube to
help taxpayers understand their tax obligations. Check these out at
www.
Our news feed on Twitter, @IRSnews, is another
excellent source of tax information.
Keep in mind that 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 2011. These include the American opportunity credit and the
expanded earned income credit. Make sure to check to see if you qualify for
these and other important deductions and credits.
Remember that the fastest, safest and easiest way to get your refund is to
e-file and use direct deposit. E-file has become so popular that nearly eight
out of 10 individual taxpayers now e-file their return. It’s now the first choice
for about 112 million taxpayers.
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 a fillable form available at IRS.gov.
We know that it takes time to prepare and file a tax return, but the IRS
wants to help you fulfill your tax obligations and will continue to go the
extra mile to provide assistance.
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.
