Designing & Implementing a Tailored IRS Modernized E-File Solution for a US City’s Revenue Department

About the client

The client is the Revenue Department of a US-based city.

Business Objectives

This City’s Revenue Department is participating in the Federal/State Modernized e-File (MeF) program, under the IRS Modernized e-File architecture. The City’s Revenue Department was supporting BIRT EZ, BIRT Long and NPT tax forms for the year 2013. This initiative was taken with the aim of obtaining more city tax submissions and to remove the overhead of manual intervention involved in paper returns.

MeF uses new architecture for electronic filing and introduces a largely automated, real-time and scalable e-file system.

How the client benefitted?
