States have until Sept. 4 to tell the IRS if they’re interested in participating.
States will have the chance to collaborate with the IRS on how they may integrate with the agency’s forthcoming direct file pilot.
In a July 16 letter to the Federation of Tax Administrators, which serves state tax collection agencies, IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel wrote that the tax agency is “interested in continuing to learn from states directly, and from [Federation of Tax Administrators], about the challenges they may face when integrating with a Direct File pilot, be they technological, policy-driven or other concerns.”
States that want to be involved in the pilot have until Sept. 4 to tell the IRS, the letter states.
