The Direct File pilot program is rolling out in stages.
The agency estimates that several hundred thousand taxpayers are eligible for the initial rollout in the 2024 tax season.
Four other states that have a state income tax also are part of the pilot program — Arizona, Massachusetts, California and New York.
In those four, state tax agencies will help people directly file their state taxes as well.
“Direct File is one step toward getting the IRS in line with 21st century tax administration,” Olson said.
