The IRS terminated My IRS Account in December 2008, a project that would have provided taxpayers online access to their tax account information and tools to find assistance for tax preparation. The agency also planned to use MIRSA as a prototype for future delivery of Web-based projects. The IRS terminated the project near its scheduled December 2008 deployment date after working on it for 32 months and spending $10 million.
