Good News! IRS to Accept More Forms
In a conversation with an IRS official immediately before going to press, E@lert learned that the agency had just announced it would start accepting on Sunday (February 10th) two major tax forms that had been delayed because of the fiscal cliff brouhaha.

Form 4562, Depreciation and Amortization, and Form 8863, Education Credits, will both come online in "a step [that] clears the way for almost all taxpayers to start filing their tax returns for 2012."

The IRS also announced today it will start accepting the remaining forms affected by the January legislation the first week of March. A specific date will be announced later. Most of those in this group file more complex tax returns and typically file closer to the deadline or obtain an extension. A full list of the forms that will be accepted the first week of March is available on IRS.gov.
