e-filing

Online tax submission

E-filing is submitting documents electronically rather than on paper, especially tax returns or legal filings: The IRS encourages e-filing for faster refunds.

Courts increasingly require e-filing for case documents.

The term applies broadly to any official paperwork submitted through digital systems rather than by mail or in person.
