| Convenience is a big advantage of e-filing. You can prepare your taxes and file them electronically at any time without having to print, package, and mail your return. |

 |
| When you e-file, you know your return won't get lost in the mail. And the IRS will send you an acknowledgement of receipt within 48 hours of receiving your return for added peace of mind. |

| Statistically, less than one percent of electronic filings contain errors as compared to 20 percent for paper returns. So using e-file and an electronic return preparation system will help to ensure your return is free of calculation errors. |

| If you're due a refund, you'll get it faster if you use e-file (particularly if you choose the direct deposit option). If your refund is sizable, this can be a major reason for wanting to e-file. |
