The Government to Require E-filing for Small Businesses

In the next few months many small and medium sized businesses will be required to e-file their tax returns and other tax forms including W-2s and 1099s. According to the Internal Revenue Service, corporations with $10 million or more in total assets and those that file 250 or more returns, which includes the annual tax forms given to employees and independent contractors, will be required to submit their forms for 2006 using the government’s e-filing system. Although there is no official word, it is presumed that the IRS will push more companies towards e-filing in the future. For more information click here.
