The IRS temporarily extends the deadline for certain email and digital procedures. Due to COVID-19, the IRS announced in March that it would deviate from certain established procedures through July 15, 2020. That is, IRS employees have been allowed to accept digital, scanned or photographed images of taxpayer signatures on documents related to a taxpayer’s tax liability. Also, the IRS has been able to receive emailed documents from a taxpayer and send documents to taxpayers, using approved encryption methods. With the ongoing need for social distancing, the IRS has now announced that it will continue to allow these practices through Dec. 31, 2020. Contact us with questions. © 2020
