As reported on Wall Street Journal, the Internal Revenue Service is launching a crowdsourcing challenge to “design the taxpayer experience of the future.” The contest, which comes with a $10,000 grand prize, begins April 17 with judging scheduled for May and June. The $10,000 grand prize will go to the best overall submission, but the IRS will issue smaller cash prizes in categories such as “Best Taxpayer Usefulness” and “Best Financial Capability.” (wsj.com)
