On: GSA Eliminates 18F

[ein0p]

Lots of people are hyperventilating about DirectFile, but:

1. IRS itself created DirectFile. 18F merely provided some unquantifiable "support"

2. DirectFile is not shut down.

Don’t worry - I’m sure that if Scott Bessent’s ever worried about his job he won’t hesitate to get rid of Direct File.

Lets bet DirectFile is going to be shutdown in the next one year?

I don't know why you're getting downvoted, but you are correct. It's essential that as many people as possible know about and use Direct File this year, to provide evidence that it ought to be continued.

+1. I agree. The government should not shut down a way to collect revenues.

What are you talking about? Direct File completes tax return forms for types of income that already have taxes withheld.
