Electronic Return Originators (EROs) must submit new Forms 8633 when expanding their IRS e-file businesses to additional physical locations. Applications must be submitted with fingerprint cards for all principals of the firm and responsible officials listed on the application unless fingerprint cards have been submitted before with an application that was accepted into the IRS e-file program. Evidence of professional status may be substituted for fingerprint cards if the principal or responsible official is an attorney, CPA, enrolled agent, banking official who is bonded and has been fingerprinted within the last TWO years, or officer of a publicly owned corporation as specified in the Internal Revenue procedure.
EROs must submit new Forms 8633 only for additional fixed locations from which the origination of the electronic submission of the return will occur. A fixed location is an office owned or leased by the ERO. |
