Should You E-File Your Tax Return?

Friday April 4, 2008
If you're like me and you still need to finish up your tax return, you need to considering electronic filing to avoid missing the filing deadline. E-filing has other benefits, my favorites being that e-filing is more secure than mailing a return and you get a confirmation that an e-filed return was received.

With all the good things e-filing taxes offers, I couldn't understand why everyone who uses tax prep software didn't e-file, but then I read Should I E-File or Paper File? from William Perez at About Taxes. There are cases when you should avoid e-filing, so give William's info a read.
