e-File – Keep Paper Copies

E-filing returns is faster and helps eliminate mistakes.  Whether you e-file returns directly on an Internal Revenue Service site or through a software program like QuickBooks©, be sure to keep paper copies for your files and for your CPA. The IRS e-system often gives IRS auditors an incomplete view of the return. As a result, auditors often begin by asking taxpayers for hard copies of information they already provided to the IRS. To avoid problems, keep hard copies.
