Being a small business owner or entrepreneur can be a heavy lift sometimes. Fortunately, there’re several tools and resources that can help them manage their tax responsibilities efficiently. National Small Business Week 2026, is an opportunity to highlight some of the improvements and technology available to enhance the taxpayer experience.

Information Returns Intake System 
 IRIS is a modernized system that lets taxpayers e-file information returns for tax years 2022 and later as well as file a correction and request automatic extensions.

Digital and mobile-friendly forms
 Certain IRS forms are available for taxpayers to easily complete and submit from their computer, cell phone or tablet. This gives taxpayers a safe and fast way to electronically engage with IRS. For forms that require signatures, they need an IRS Individual Account to complete the mobile friendly forms.

IRS Secure Messaging
 It’s a way for taxpayers and authorized representatives of a taxpayer/business to directly interact with IRS representatives. Taxpayers can submit electronic documentation quickly and securely and reduce or eliminate the need to call or mail documents. Secure messages can be sent to you by IRS representatives.
