However, preparers can easily apply or renew online in minutes. And don't forget that starting in January, any paid preparer or firm that prepares and files eleven or more returns must use IRS e-file. To become an Authorized IRS e-file Provider, you must create an e-Services account, submit an EFIN application and pass a suitability check. Click here for more information.

Form Starter Kits New Release Date for Payroll Corrector CFS won't leave you hanging! Our goal is to keep no customer on hold for longer than three minutes. We don't want you to be stuck on the phone when your time could be better spent doing something else. Also, each customer that is on hold ties up a line that another customer could be using to get through to us. Given the number of phone lines, customer service representatives, and support technicians we have available, we feel that our system is the most efficient way of handling calls. Happy Thanksgiving!
