Electronic-Filing Requirements for Specified Returns and Other Documents

Issuing agencies

Abstract

This document contains proposed regulations amending the rules for filing electronically and affects persons required to file partnership returns, corporate income tax returns, unrelated business income tax returns, withholding tax returns, and certain information returns, registration statements, disclosure statements, notifications, actuarial reports, and certain excise tax returns. The proposed amendments reflect changes made by the Taxpayer First Act of 2019 (TFA) and are consistent with the TFA's emphasis on increasing electronic filing. This document also withdraws proposed regulations published in the Federal Register on May 31, 2018, amending the rules for determining whether information returns must be filed electronically.
