IRS will not mail tax forms next year

The Internal Revenue Service has decided to stop mailing tax forms because so many people now file electronically.

The Washington Post reports on its website Monday that the IRS expects to save about $10 million a year by eliminating mailing.

More than 96 million people filed their returns through the IRS online service last year, and about 20 million filed paper forms through paid tax preparers.

The IRS says people who want to file paper returns will be able to obtain the forms from the IRS website or its offices as well as some libraries and post offices.
