This process ensures faster validation, automated error detection, and secure confirmation through IRS-approved channels.

The IRS FIRE system supports legacy e-file information returns, while the newer IRIS platform is designed for browser-based submissions. Both systems meet federal encryption standards, display a locked padlock icon in the browser, and ensure secure transmission of all electronic information returns.
Any legal business, tax service provider, or authorized transmitter can apply for a TCC online through the IRS intake system.
