LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Jan. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- The Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
doesn't officially accept tax returns from e-filers until January 16th.
However, taxpayers can file their returns electronically with CitizenTax.com
now, and get a jump on the process. 

"When you enter your information and file your return with CitizenTax.com, we
will save it and transmit it to the IRS on the morning of Friday the 16th,"
explains J. Gregg Rollins, president and chief executive officer of
CititzenTax.com, an IRS-authorized e-filing provider. "Those returns will be
among the first to be processed by the IRS and, as a result, filers using our
service will be among the first to get their refunds by check or through
direct deposit." Rollins adds that this is the first time that the company is
offering this service to its customers. Early filing is expected to be higher
than average this year due to the recession and its impact across all income
levels. "CitizenTax.com is ready with additional capacity to handle those
returns so that our clients can receive their monies as soon as possible
during these economically difficult times," says Rollins.
