The IRS requires an ID.me account to access e-Services and other online services E-Services transitioned the MeF application to a modernized sign-in system that requires users to register and sign in with ID.me to access the e-Services suite of online applications. ID.me is an account created, maintained, and secured by a technology provider. Modernized e-File (MeF) provides an option to e-file corporate, exempt organization, individual, partnership, excise tax, and withholding tax returns through the internet. If you have already registered and applied as an e-file provider, log in to MeF Internet Filing to transmit returns and retrieve acknowledgements. Note: IFA link for ATS only access until production shutdown/cut over period. If you do not have an e-Services user name or password or have not applied to be an internet filer, then you must go to the e-Services webpage to register and apply to be an Internet Filer. For additional information on MeF internet filing, refer to Publication 4164, Modernized e-File (MeF) Guide for Software Developers and Transmitters PDF. To determine if the MeF systems are operational, refer to the Modernized e-File (MeF) Status page.
