Electronic Filing
Last year, nearly 100 million taxpayers opted for the safest, fastest and easiest way to submit their individual tax returns—e-file. Since 1990, taxpayers have e-filed nearly 1 billion tax returns safely and securely. E-file is the most common method of filing. It is quick, allowing you to receive your refund within 8-14 days on average and easy, eliminating additional paperwork and the preparation of envelopes for mailing.
