What is Electronic Filing?

 
 

We make it easy!

 
 

E-File stands for the Federal/State Electronic Filing Program, a joint program between the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and the Illinois Department of Revenue ("IDOR") to provide electronic filing capability of both Federal and State income tax returns in a one-transmission manner.  

The Federal and State returns are "packaged" together and transmitted to the IRS.  The State return is removed from the Federal return by the IRS and forwarded to the State for prompt processing.  Both the IRS and the IDOR reply back to the Electronic Filer with an acknowledgment that the returns (Federal and State) have been received and accepted. 

You save time and money filing electronically!

  • Single data entry. Since both Federal and State returns are packaged together, most information needs to be entered only once to file both returns.
  • Proof of return receipt and acceptance by both the IRS and the IDOR.  Acknowledgements are sent back to the Electronic Filer indicating receipt (a substantial savings over the cost of a registered letter.)
  • Immediate review of returns for correctness of information.  Each is reviewed upon arrival at the IRS for obviously incorrect data (such as incorrect SSNs or mis-matching dollar amounts.)
  • Convenience by providing taxpayers a one-stop opportunity to file both Federal and State returns. 
  • Quick processing of Federal and State returns meaning refund checks will be back in the hands of taxpayers in record time!
