It’s a conceit, not a joke. It’s serious satire.

Becoming an "Authorized IRS e-file Provider" is a significant hurdle that is not necessary to producing a real, mailable, tax return.

It's certainly a convenience, and most serious software would try to include it, but I don't think MSCHF are going for convenience. The Yahoo headline and article uses the word "file" but the video doesn't.

Thank you, you're the only one who's provided a reasonable answer instead of "it's a joke"

If they actually got this certified, it would be the ultimate troll!
