IRS efile Tax Software - IRS Requirements

The following information will help guide you through the proper IRS efile / Abacus efile™ requirements.

1) 
To participate in the IRS efile program you must fill out IRS Form 8633 and return it to the IRS. To download IRS Form 8633 you'll need Adobe Acrobat Reader which you can get by clicking here. To download IRS Form 8633 click here.

You'll need to call the IRS at 1-866-255-0654 to get your finger print card.

The IRS updates Form 8633 each July so you should make sure that the Form 8633 that you submit says "Rev. July (the current year)" in the upper left corner.

Where to File. Send IRS efile Form(s) 8633 to the Andover Service Center. See page 4 of Form 8633 for the daytime and overnight mailing address.

2) Who to Contact for Answers. If you have questions about the IRS efile program and don't know where to get answers you can e-mail us, or the IRS efile information can be found under Electronic Services at the following Internet Address: http://www.irs.gov or you may call the IRS toll free at 1-866-255-0654.

3) Purchase the EFI or EFI Direct software - (required for IRS efile, RALs, and QIK Funds). Your IRS efile software will be shipped in mid-December.

Important Notice if you intend to transmit returns from multiple locations.

Electronic Return Originators (EROs) must submit new Forms 8633 when expanding their IRS e-file businesses to additional physical locations. Applications must be submitted with fingerprint cards for all principals of the firm and responsible officials listed on the application unless fingerprint cards have been submitted before with an application that was accepted into the IRS e-file program. Evidence of professional status may be substituted for fingerprint cards if the principal or responsible official is an attorney, CPA, enrolled agent, banking official who is bonded and has been fingerprinted within the last TWO years, or officer of a publicly owned corporation as specified in the Internal Revenue procedure.

EROs must submit new Forms 8633 only for additional fixed locations from which the origination of the electronic submission of the return will occur. A fixed location is an office owned or leased by the ERO.
