Treasury Secretary Bessent in his confirmation hearing committed to allowing Direct File for this tax season, which started last week.
Are we to believe that people who did their taxes through it will have them deleted as well?

Elon Musk claims to have "deleted" the office in the IRS which has enabled people to file their tax returns electronically, simply, and for free.

“Why should one pay taxes to an illegitimate federal government?” is something you’ll be seeing a lot

Direct File is still accessible, they "deleted" the office that created it, and may still try to kill the program as it exists, but not so far.

If we have no legitimate government, why should we pay taxes to a coup?

He is lying. Direct File is still accessible as of 12:13 pm PST.

I wouldn't trust it.

betsy-cazden.bsky.social•20 days ago

I'm not a general fan of tax refusal. But I'm not willing to file any return (directly or indirectly) into an IRS system whose confidentiality and security have been totally compromised by an unaccountable goon squad.

Either way almost everyone who you've generated taxable income with has already filed with the IRS as you can see in your IRS transcript. So they already have everything you probably were going to disclose.
