Visits to IRS Website Up 10 Percent

Taxpayers, hungry for more information, have been visiting the IRS website looking for answers in increasing numbers, with total visitors this tax season so far numbering about 200 million, which the IRS website itself says represents a 10 percent increase over last year.
