SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

This announcement solicits applications from potential partners to participate in the 2004 IRS Individual e-file Partnership Program. The partnership opportunities are a result of RRA 98, which requires the IRS to receive 80 percent of all returns electronically by 2007. RRA 98 authorized the IRS Commissioner to promote the benefits of and encourage the use of e-file services through partnerships with various entities that offer low cost tax preparation and electronic filing of income tax returns for qualified taxpayers. Those applicants that are accepted as partners will have a link(s) and description(s) of their services placed on the IRS website at www.irs.gov (IRS e-file Partners Page).
