Hello,

1 and 2 should be the EROs in your area which were awarded the
"Exemplary Electronic Return Originators" by the IRS for 2001. They
may not be as close to you as some of the others, but they were
singled out by the IRS for performance and accuracy. From their
website (linked below):

"The award honors one tax firm in each state that filed a large
percentage of its customers' returns electronically and the returns
filed had very few errors."

I used the zip code to search their database (see below) for their
current location as the awards were given out last year and they might
have changed their location since.

For the rest of the list, I searched around the IRS website until I
found an e-file partners (ERO) search engine. It's linked to below. I
then searched for accredited providers in 2 cities, Bethesda, MD, and
Annandale, VA, and found 4 providers in each area to fill out the list
of 10.

I picked these two cities because they were the biggest near D.C. but
if these are not close enough, you can visit the e-file (ERO) provider
search website at the bottom of this page. Or, please by all means
clarify your question with the specific zip code(s) that you are
looking for and I can generate another list for you just as easy.
Thank you for letting me help you with your question.
