Why File Electronically?
A record-breaking 76 million tax returns were filed electronically
in 2006, with 20 million filed from home computers.*
The trend is expected to continue in 2007, as more
Americans discover how fast, convenient and secure online
filing can be. According to the IRS, if you file electronically,
your refund check will be issued within three weeks.
Electronic filing lets you file around the clock from the comfort
of your own home, and prevents the possibility of your
information being lost or stolen in the mail.
What You Will Need
To file your return electronically, you will need a computer
with Internet access and tax preparation software. The IRS
Web site, www.irs.gov, lists tested and approved software
companies and can also help you determine whether you are
eligible for free electronic filing through an authorized service
provider.
Before you begin to prepare your tax return, the IRS suggests
you gather the following information:
- Your Social Security number (and if applicable, that of your spouse and any dependents)
- W-2 forms from all of your employers
- 1099 forms for dividends, retirement, other income or income tax withholding
- Receipts for expenses for itemized deductions listed on Schedule A
- Receipts and records for other income or expenses
- Credit union account numbers
Enjoy Your Refund with Greater Speed and Safety
Direct deposit of your refund is safer than receiving a check in
the mail. It's also easy, quick and free. Simply enter your account
number and our routing number, 261071564. By having your
refund deposited directly into your savings or checking
account at The Coca-Cola Company Family Federal Credit Union,
you may be able to get your refund in as little as 10 days
after filing electronically.
