TY2012 IRS/KY Contingency Plan
The primary method of transmitting Kentucky returns for tax year 2012 is through the Modernized Electronic Filing System (MeF). Kentucky has elected to follow the IRS's lead and allow filing through the legacy system if the IRS determines an emergency situation has occurred and the IRS contingency plan has been activated. In order to participate in the contingency plan, you will need to contact us and test through legacy in addition to MeF.
