"Several of our
systems are not currently operating, including our modernized
e-file system and a number of other related systems," the IRS
said in a statement.
"A number of taxpayer and tax practitioner tools are
unavailable," it said. "IRS.gov remains available, although a
number of the services on the site are not, including Where’s My
Refund."
The agency said it is in the process of making repairs and
anticipates some of the systems will remain unavailable until
Thursday.
The IRS said it does not anticipate major refund disruptions.
"We continue to expect that nine out of 10 taxpayers will
receive their refunds within 21 days," the agency said.
