I did my taxes with TurboTax as usual, and was surprised to find that it no longer gave me the option of using the 1040-PC printout. This was the OCR-friendly format which usually fit on one page. A quick web search turned up the IRS Tax Topic 251: The 1040-PC Format. It was discontinued in favor of the electronic filing method. I’m not quite ready for e-file yet (and it costs money, more than stamps). Maybe next year I’ll feel more comfortable with it after if I don’t hear about any problems. For now, I guess I’ll be sending off a pile of pages like I did before 1040-PC.
