The IRS is apparently trying to add online access to your tax records. It comes at a hefty price tag, and for now it is just a faint promise. It would be a great tool if they could create this access without any security issues. Hey, the banks do it with equally sensitive information, so why can't the IRS? I'll admit I have some doubts and concerns.
But the lure of not spending large amounts of time on hold to speak to an IRS representative so that they can mail or fax an account transcript is very appealing. This move would make communication between the IRS and taxpapers/preparers so much easier, and would free up the phone lines for more complex issues than ordering a transcript.
