The Internal Revenue Service today unveiled its 100th eBook — a milestone in IRS efforts to share
information to meet the changing needs of taxpayers.
The IRS eBooks effort, which began two years ago, offers an easy
way to read and review some of the most commonly used IRS tax products. Through
eBooks, taxpayers can view Form
1040 instructions, Publication 17 and other frequently used tax publications by
using mobile devices such as smart phones, tablets
and eReaders.
"This milestone reflects our continuing commitment to share
information with taxpayers so they have the information they need in the way
they prefer," said IRS Commissioner John Koskinen. "Our eBook initiative makes it easier for
taxpayers to access common publications, even if they’re using a mobile phone
or tablet.”
The eBook format makes it much easier to navigate a publication,
adjust the print size and add comments or bookmarks on mobile devices. It also
provides accessibility for users who are visually impaired.
The complete list of all eBook publications is available at https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/ebooks. Tax publications are also available on IRS.gov for free
downloading in PDF and HTML versions.
Taxpayers can obtain federal tax
forms and publications anytime.
All IRS forms, instructions and publications are
available on the IRS.gov website. In addition, tax products are generally
available online six to eight weeks before paper products are distributed. To
view and download tax products, use the ‘Forms and Pubs’ tab on IRS.gov.
