Do employees have to include a signed and dated copy of IRS Form 1040 in initial application and recertification packages if the employee files their taxes electronically?
A28. Yes. A signed and dated copy of IRS Form 1040 is required in all initial application and recertification packages. Other forms used when filing electronically, such as IRS Forms 8453 and 8879, will not be accepted. Since the IRS Form 1040 does not contain a signature when filing electronically, employees (and spouses, if applicable) must sign and date (use the date the taxes were filed electronically) the IRS Form 1040.
