Personally, I am a bit pissed that the IRS, a government organization with the sole purpose of collecting taxes, has no method for me to submit my tax return to them via the internet.
Wow, I had no idea, thanks for the info. The IRS website doesn't provide any obvious indication that FFFF is run by a third party, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised that they contracted it out like that.
Maybe it's time to just switch back to downloading the PDF forms, filling them in on my local computer, printing them out, and just mailing them in. Ugh.
