The 941-TeleFile Pilot Program
December 1, 1997
(SmartPros)
The IRS has invited more than 890,000 qualifying small businesses to participate in a pilot program that allows them to file their Form 941 returns by telephone, using a toll-free number.
These businesses received a special 941 TeleFile tax record and instructions in their packages along with a Form 941 Payment Voucher and, for those who were not eligible to file by phone, a regular Form 941. Changing the way they file their quarterly employment tax returns will save time and paperwork.
941 TeleFile is easy. The user completes the tax record and places a toll-free call to the number listed in the instruction pack. A voice processing system prompts users to make entries using the phone's keypad and repeats each entry so that callers can immediately correct mistakes. 941 TeleFile provides a confirmation number to each filer as verification of filing.
The pilot, continuing through January 1998, is currently limited to states in the southeast United States. Once completed, the IRS will expand the system nationwide. The IRS encourages filers receiving the special purple and black 941 TeleFile instructions and a tax record to try the system. It is quick, easy, and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
