What is The Internal Revenue Service?

Individual taxpayers e-filed almost 90 million tax returns during 2008, an increase of more than 12 percent over the prior year. Of the 155 million tax returns filed, about 58 percent were filed electronically.
“More people with home computers and businesses embraced electronic filing this year," said IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman. “Every year, more people realize that electronic filing is the safe, accurate way for taxpayers to complete their taxes and get faster refunds.” FOREX ROBOTS
Tax Returns Filed by Individuals
While the total number of returns has increased by 23 percent during the past decade, the number filed electronically has increased by 206 percent.
This year, almost 27 million returns were filed by individuals from their home computers, up from 22.6 million last year ? a 19 percent increase. Filings from home computers accounted for 30 percent of all returns e-filed by individuals. Even though individual tax filings were spurred to unprecedented levels by the economic stimulus payments, the percentage of those e-filed increased to 58 percent.
