A good place to start is IRS.gov (http://www.hotdealsclub.com/link/?5a0fce0c5539897f4dc6fa9767628fd1-6), where they have a list of certified E-File providers (http://www.hotdealsclub.com/link/?5a0fce0c5539897f4dc6fa9767628fd1-6).Be very careful submitting personal information to any tax website not on their list.Also be sure you are visiting "IRS.GOV" (spelled exactly like that)and not some look-alike scam site.
