The Internal Revenue Service said Friday that it is delaying the planned retirement of its Disclosure Authorization and Electronic Account Resolution online applications for three weeks.

In an email to tax professionals Friday, the IRS indicated that the closure of the applications has been delayed, but only temporarily. “The planned retirement of Disclosure Authorization and Electronic Account Resolution on Aug. 11 has been delayed until Sept. 2 while IRS completes the transition to a new web portal,” said the IRS. “DA and EAR users have an additional three weeks to use both electronic products. Once the portal transition work is complete, DA and EAR will then be retired as previously planned and will be unavailable for use.”
