    It will. Takes time to test and roll things out

      You are severely underestimating the tax prep lobbyists. The IRS has been trying to do this for decades.

        I’m aware of this. This is the first time I’m aware they managed to get a pilot system and I think that shows great promise. Also, people are noticing more and more, and pushing back.

        Yes, but previously all the big player opted into a middle ground goverment sanctioned “free file” system that made filing taxes free for most Americans from these companies.

        Thr big players have recently opted out, so the IRS is now actually running the pilot this year.
