Were you aware that the IRS offers
several electronic filing options designed
specifically for the business filer? There are
several ways you may choose to participate in the
IRS e-file for Business (http://www.irs.gov/efile/content/0,,id=101103,00.html)
programs. Whatever your choice,
participation in IRS e-file for Business
programs is e-fficient with increased
accuracy, it's more e-ffective since
you'll spend less time filing tax returns and more
time focused on your business, and it's more
e-conomical with less paperwork.
