RE: [AGA-Contest] Some of the Jobs (Long)

I don't think we'll be able to do something of this degree.  I think the 
way the IRS/TurboTax deals with this is that certain information such as 
the previous year's tax is your "signature" for this year's electronic 
return.  But it ultimately comes down to some "trusted" way of identifying 
yourself.

Let's find out if the scan/fax is acceptable and go with that.
