Security
These are the principles My IRS Reply is being designed around. They are planned, not yet operational — this preview does not accept or store taxpayer information, so none of these protections are in use yet.
This is a placeholder. The final policy will be completed before My IRS Reply accepts any real taxpayer information. This preview does not collect or store taxpayer information.
Planned principles
Private document storage
IRS notices and supporting documents kept in private storage, never publicly accessible.
Encrypted transmission
Information sent between your device and My IRS Reply protected in transit.
Access controls
Only you, and people you choose, able to see your case.
Data minimization
Asking only for what is needed for the step you are working on.
Secure authentication
Protected sign-in, including multi-factor authentication.
Limited retention
Keeping information only as long as it is needed.
Account and document deletion controls
Clear ways to delete documents or your whole account.
